The Elkhart Promise: Every student is known by name, challenged and supported by highly effective staff, and in partnership with the community, will graduate career/college ready and life ready.
Important: All Families Must Complete Registration for the 2025-2026
Registration opens on February 1, 2025! Whether your student is returning, transitioning to a new school within our district, or joining the ECS family for the first time, this is the time to secure your spot for another exciting school year.
Two Important Changes for 2025-2026 Registration
- Transportation Requests: Parents must now request transportation during the registration process. This helps our transportation department efficiently plan bus routes. Transportation will remain available for students living outside walk zones.
- Transfer Applications: These will only be available after completing the registration process.
If you have any questions, please call Student Services at 574-262-5540.
