Kaufman ISD District Enrollment

Kaufman ISD welcomes families new to our District. For grades PreK-12, the enrollment process begins by completing online enrollment. You will need an email address that you can access before you begin the online enrollment process.  After being prompted to request a Skyward account, parents will receive an email with login information.  The following internet browsers translate online enrollment into other languages: Safari, Firefox, and Chrome.

Parents must finalize enrollment by visiting the campus to verify proof of residency and the identity of their student. You will be contacted by your student’s school with information needed to complete your student’s enrollment.

Use the online School Locator to determine which school a student will attend.

If you need assistance in creating an email or uploading a document,

you can find a tutorial here in English and here in Spanish.

Who can enroll?

All students of qualifying age living within the boundaries of the District are eligible for public education in Kaufman ISD.

When to Enroll

New student online enrollment begins July 18, 2024.  New students may enroll anytime during the school year at the campus.  Enrollment packets are available at the Administration Building located at 1000 S. Houston Street Kaufman, TX.
