New Student Registration Home
We welcome you and your child to the Carmel Central School District! Students must live within the boundaries of the Carmel Central School District and meet state age and health requirements. We have one high school, one middle school and three elementary schools. Students are assigned to an elementary school based on their address of residence. Please see our District-Assigned Roads guide to determine which elementary school your child will attend.
You will need a ParentVUE account to access our online registration portal to register for Kindergarten through Grade 12.
- New Families: If you have never had a student enrolled in CCSD schools or UPK, please follow these instructions to Create a New ParentVUE Account. Note: use a computer browser to register, using a mobile phone may result in errors.
- Existing Families: If you have a child(ren) that are currently attending or have attended Carmel schools or UPK in the past, DO NOT create a new ParentVue account - you must use your existing account or contact the school registrar to request your ParentVUE account activation code.
