Believe It Or Not, It's Back To School Time
July 28, 2016 at 4:25 p.m.
This August may be special to those soon-to-be freshmen - the first year of high school for the class of 2000.
But for hundreds of other students in Kosciusko County, it's just another school year.
Registration for the 1996-97 school year gets under way next week for most Kosciusko County school systems. The first day of classes follows for all five schools the week of Aug. 19.
Following is a complete registration schedule and the basic book fees for elementary and, when available, middle school students. Charges for some middle school students and all high schoolers vary based on electives taken. Most schools require fees to be paid at registration.
Students may be eligible for financial assistance for books and school meals. Contact your child's school for financial guidelines and any forms needed.
Students who are new to a school system may need to provide a legal birth certificate, Social Security card and proof of immunization. Specific requirements for each school are available by contacting the school or administration offices.
