Welcome

  • Where We're Learning for Life 
    We're glad you're making our beautiful waterside community your home. We take great pride in the quality of our schools and the educational opportunities they offer. All of our teachers and staff are dedicated to partnering closely with families to ensure your child has a rewarding and positive learning experience. 

       
    Enrolling Your Child 
    Oak Harbor Public Schools uses an online process to enroll new students. Prior to beginning the online application process, families are encouraged to have the required documents available to upload into the application.  The application can be saved throughout the process, but completing the application in one sitting expedites your request. Once submitted online, the completed application is available for school approval. For families with elementary students, it's important to know your child's school of residence prior to beginning registration.  If you don't know your neighborhood school or have questions, you can use our district Boundary Map, or call the Administrative Service Center at 360.279.5000.
     
    Online Registration
    Registration for the 2022-23 school year is now open. Registration for kindergartners and new students for the 2023-2024 school year will open on April 10, 2023.
     
    Kindergarten Enrollment
    Online new kindergarten enrollment for the 2023-2024 school year will open on April 10, 2023.  A student entering school for the first time must be five years old before August 31, 2023. Please note, returning Hand-in-Hand Early Learning Center families do not need to submit a new registration application, but should log-in and verify their information for next school year as a returning student. Students from the Head Start program do need to submit a new registration application for the 2023-2024 school year.
     
    If you do not know the name of your neighborhood school, view the Boundary Map or call us at 360.279.5000.

    Transfers
    Requests to transfer to another school within our district must be reviewed by your neighborhood school. Please be aware that elementary families are expected to provide transportation if they choose to send their student to a school other than the neighborhood school. Middle school and high school families are expected to provide transportation to the transfer school unless the student can get to a designated bus stop. For the 2023-2024 school year, online In-District Transfer forms will be accepted beginning Monday, May 1. Priority consideration will be given to requests received by Friday, June 2.  Please note, it is not first-come, first-served.

    Out-of-District Choice Transfer Portal 
    The Choice Transfer Request Portal (CTRP) is used by many school districts in Washington State to process Choice Transfer requests. A Choice Transfer request is made when a student wants to attend a school outside of the school district where the student lives. For a Choice Transfer, the resident district must first release the student to start the transfer process. When you have completed your transfer application, your request will be sent to the resident school district.

    On The Move? 
    If you move within the district during the year, your child can remain at their current school but you may become responsible for transportation. Please notify your school office of any address change. If you are moving out of district but wish to stay at your current school, visit your school office for information about the Choice Transfer process.
     
    Moving out of state or abroad? Please contact your school office to withdraw your student.
