How to Enroll

Please follow the steps below to enroll in Lakeville Area Schools.
You will need an email address and a computer to complete the enrollment process online. If you do not have access to a computer, our enrollment staff can support you to complete the enrollment application in person at the District Office. 

On Feb. 27, 2024, the Lakeville Area Schools Board of Education approved K-8 attendance area adjustments model D3 after several months of designing updated school boundaries with stakeholder input. The school boundary adjustments are necessary in order to address capacity issues across K-8 schools and to open the District's newest school, Highview Elementary. Boundary adjustments for grades K-8 will take effect beginning in the 2024-25 school year, while high school boundaries remain unchanged. Families are encouraged to enroll their student(s) beginning January 1. Early enrollment helps the district accurately staff and resource our schools and ensures that families can receive important communications and updates from their school and the district. To learn more about the attendance area adjustment process, visit isd194.org/attendance-areas.

To confirm your student’s school assignment for the 2024-25 school year, most families can enter their home address using the ‘Interactive Attendance Area Map Tool’ on the District’s Map & Attendance Boundaries webpage.
