How to Enroll Your Family
Welcome to the Winneconne Community School District!
We are excited that you have chosen to educate your child(ren) with us!
To enroll your family:
Enrollment for new students (4K-grade 12) is required and only by completing this process will a student's place at Winneconne Schools be assured. When new families move into the Winneconne Area School District, we ask that you record your child(ren) and babies with the district as soon as possible by completing the Census Information Form linked below. This form will allow us to reach families living in the district for pre-school screening and 4K information early.
Please complete the following district form (if you do not have access to a computer, please stop in the Middle School Office at 400 North 9th Avenue, Winneconne):
