Parents and guardians who are in need of technical assistance with their PowerSchool online registration account can reach out to PowerSchool directly. Technical issues may include:

• Account log-in
• Difficulty filling out the form and attaching files

Please note that some questions may be answered through the Help portion of the PowerSchool website.

For technical assistance with the registration platform used for the New and Current Student Registration, please call PowerSchool’s help number at 1-866-752-6850.

To protect student and parent information, PowerSchool representatives will assist you with your account once they verify your identity.

To protect student and parent information, we cannot correct any application submissions via email.

For general assistance, including changing answer choices on a completed application, please call the Alief ISD Student Services Department at 281-988-3100 during normal business hours (Monday-Thursday from 7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. and Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.).

In lieu of bringing the documents to the school, applicants of new Alief ISD students can upload documents directly to the application.

For students who are new to Alief ISD and students who are returning to Alief ISD but did not attend Alief ISD schools during the 2019-2020 school year, as a part of the registration, you will be asked to upload the following documentation to the digital form:

• Student's birth certificate
• Student's immunization records
• Deed/Lease 
• Most recent utility bill and/or bank statement
• Student's Social Security Card 
• Parent's photo ID
• Student's most recent report card
• Additional Documents
  • Additional documents for incoming Pre-Kindergarten students who are qualifying by income may include the last 3 months' pay stubs and/or last year's income tax statement from everyone in the household

While parents/guardians will be able to submit the application without uploading the documents, we strongly recommend the upload of the necessary documents within the online form so that the application will be processed quickly.

During the application review, if the application for the new student is missing any required registration documents, the school will contact the parent/guardian directly.

For additional details on registration requirements, please visit the Student Services Department website.

 

Parents/guardians must submit an application for each student attending Alief ISD schools during the 2020-2021 school year.

Parents/guardians do not need to create a new account for each student application. Within your account, you will be able to apply for multiple students. After completing the first student's application, on the Next Steps page, you will be given the opportunity to submit another student's application.

To make the registration process easier, when starting your second student's application, you will be able to import your answers from the previous application so that you do not have to fill out the majority of the form twice. For example, by using the import function, you will only need to fill out the parent/guardian contact information and emergency contact information once.

Those approved to attend a different school must still fill out this registration form. 

• If your child was an approved in-district transfer or approved to attend a different school due to a specialized program (ex. Mandarin Immersion Program at Petrosky Elementary School), your physical address will show the zoned school. However, you will be able to put your approved school change in the "School" field below Enrolled Grade and complete the remainder of the form.
• If your child is an approved out-of-district transfer, your physical address will show as not zoned to Alief ISD, but you will be able to put your approved school change in the "School" field below Enrolled Grade and complete the remainder of the form.
  

Yes, parents who have previously filled out the new student registration form are asked to fill out this updated form.

Through this updated form, parents can now choose the preferred education model for each child (attending school in-person or receiving a virtual education) and answer other key questions that help Alief ISD prepare for the 2020-2021 school year.

Employees residing outside of Alief ISD whose children were approved to attend Alief ISD schools through an out-of-district transfer must fill out this registration form.

If your child is an approved out-of-district transfer, your physical address will show as not zoned to Alief ISD, but you will be able to put your approved school change in the "School" field below Enrolled Grade and complete the remainder of the form.

No. Prospective students who reside outside of Alief ISD boundary who are interested in attending Alief ISD schools must apply through the Limited Open Enrollment Program. That program and its separate application are on the LOE website at www.aliefisd.net/loe.

Once approved for Limited Open Enrollment, the student will be notified to fill out the enrollment application (New and Current Student Registration).

After submitting the enrollment application for the 2020-2021 school year, we will begin reviewing your application. 

NEXT STEPS:

• All Alief ISD parents must also fill out the required Student Residency Questionnaire (SRQ). Please submit a questionnaire for each student who will attend Alief ISD schools this school year. - https://www.aliefisd.net/srq
• Students returning to Alief ISD who attended Alief schools last school year: Your school will contact you regarding the school-specific next steps. Please be on the lookout for a call, text, or email from the school.
• Students new to Alief ISD or students who are returning to Alief ISD but did not attend Alief schools last school year: We will contact you to complete the registration process. If the application is incomplete, and registration documents are missing, the school will contact you directly.
