New Student Registration

We welcome you and your child to the Carmel Central School District! The experience of these memorable years will be exciting and rewarding. We look forward to working with you as a team to support your child’s social, emotional intellectual, physical and aesthetic development.

As a public school system, we welcome all students who live within the boundaries of the Carmel Central School District and meet state age and health requirements. Our district has one high school, one middle school and three elementary schools. Students are assigned to our elementary schools based on the attendance zone where they reside. Please see our District-Assigned Roads guide to determine which elementary school your child will attend.

Use the buttons below to register a new kindergarten through Grade 12 student. You will be prompted to create a PowerSchool account or log into an existing one. Once you begin registration, you can use the "save" button to save your progress and come back to your registration form at a later time.

  

The Kindergarten Registration for the upcoming 2024-2025 school year is now open! Please use the button below.
