Kindergarten

Parents with students currently enrolled in the NLPS Care to Learn Preschool program can register their child for 2020-2021 through the PowerSchool Parent Portal.

You will need to access the Parent Portal using a computer (desktop or laptop) in order to access registration forms. You will not be able to access the forms using the Parent Portal app.

If you have not already created your Parent Portal account, please follow the instructions on our Parent Portal page or Download the instructions as a PDF. Your school's administrative assistant can help you with accessing the Parent Portal if you are experiencing difficulty.

If you have already created your PowerSchool Parent Portal account, please log in and click on School Engage in the lower left hand corner. Click on Students and choose the child you wish to register. Select the 2020-2021 Preschool and Kindergarten Re-Enrolment Form on the right-hand side. Many of the fields on the form will be pre-filled with information your have already provided to us. Please update any information that may have changed, choose your options for next year, and submit the form. Detailed instructions are included in our Parent Registration User Guide for Existing Parents.

For tips on completing your registration form, please see the Tips for Completing Your Student Registration in School Engage page. 

Your child’s proof of age and legal name (birth certificate or passport) and proof of your address are required to register your child in Kindergarten. If we do not receive documentation, we may not receive funding from Alberta Education for your child. The online registration form will allow you to upload that information (a photo or scan of the document is acceptable) if you did not previously submit it when you registered for preschool. If you experience difficulty in uploading the documentation, please bring it into your school and our administrative assistants will be happy to scan it and add it to your registration information.

Please note that if you require Out of School Care or Transportation for your child, registration for those services will not open until closer to the start of the new school year.

If you are new to Northern Lights (no other children currently enrolled in our schools), please register using School Engage.

We recommend using a computer (desktop or laptop) to complete forms in School Engage. Forms can also be completed on a tablet, but are not mobile friendly and we do not recommend using a smartphone to complete forms.

Detailed instructions for registering through School Engage are included in our School Engage Parent Registration User Guide.

If you already have other children enrolled in a Northern Lights school, you can register your new kindergarten student by logging into your PowerSchool Parent Portal account and clicking on School Engage in the bottom left hand corner of the screen. Detailed instructions are included in our Parent Registration Guide for Existing Parents.

You will need to access the Parent Portal using a computer (desktop or laptop) in order to access registration forms. You will not be able to access the forms using the Parent Portal app.
