If you are completing the paperwork from your computer, please pay close attention if the office will need more than one copy of the form turned in. This information is provided below. Some forms in PDF format may be completed on your computer, but not saved, so be sure to print off the number you need before closing the document. All other forms need to be printed off and filled out by hand. *Boundary Exception Forms must be obtained and filled out at your resident district.
¨ Battle Ground Public School New Student Registration Form for each new student. Fill this form out completely, front and back, for each student in the family. You can skip the sections outlined in bold if it is a repeat of information. More and more of our communication is available through the internet, so please make sure you provide us with a legible email address.
¨ Ethnicity and Race Collection form - one form per student
¨ Home Language Survey - one form per student
¨ BGSD School Health Information Form If your student has a health concern, it should be noted on this form. If the student has a life threatening condition such as severe allergy, seizures, asthma, heart problems, diabetes, etc, then an Emergency Action Plan must be completed prior to the first day of school. If over the counter or prescription medications are required at school, a "Medication in School" form must be completed by the doctor. It should be noted that students are not allowed to carry medication of any kind while at school. Inhalers and Epipens are the exceptions if doctor's orders state that a student is allowed to carry these medications. Please ask for the appropriate forms at the office so the mandatory paperwork is in place before the first day of school. The student will not be allowed to start school until this paperwork is in place.
¨ Birth Certificate - to show only for those entering public school for the first time. Your child must be 5 years old before September 1st.

If currently enrolled in a BGSD school, this record will come in your student's file, HOWEVER, check the 2011/12 requirements for any updates your student may need. Immunization requirements for 2011/12 are included in this packet. If updates are needed, it is your responsibility to assure that information is to us before school starts.
