Registration

Welcome to ADO!

APS/ADO Registration Requirements

Please update your ParentVue account information for each student to be enrolled at ADO for the 2024-25 school year. It is especially important to update your contact information and your emergency contact list. If you have a child beginning kindergarten who has never been in an APS pre-K program, and you do not have any other children enrolled in APS, click here to start the enrollment process.

Required documents can be uploaded into ParentVue for each student, or, if you are having difficulty with the uploading process, you may email the documents to francesca.tapia@aps.edu, susan.troutt@aps.edu, or henley@aps.edu . Please be sure to note 2024-25 Registration in the subject line.

Required Documents for the 2024-25 School Year:

  1. New to APS (this includes students entering kindergarten):
  2. Upload each student's Birth Certificate, Immunization Records, and (if applicable) Certificate of Indian Blood.
  3. All families need to provide proof of residency each school year.
  4. The Proof of Residency within the ADO boundaries documents are to be provided in person during our final school registration events or could be uploaded online in ParentVUE prior to the start of school.
  5. Two (2) proof of residency documents [one (1) from List A and one (1) from List B] are required. All documents must include the registering parent or guardian's name and address, and receipts or bills must be dated after July 1, 2024 to be considered current.
  6. If you are living with a family member or friend of the family, they must provide the residential documents in person, and a Family Living with Family form must be completed as well. If the family member or family friend is unable to register with you in person to show proof of residency, a Family Living with Family form will need to be notarized.

Among the documents that will be accepted as proof of residency are:

Proof of Residency* Document: List A – choose one (dated after July 1, 2024)

  • A deed or mortgage payment receipt
  • A current property tax bill,
  • current lease or housing agreement

If your student has recently been approved to transfer to ADO for the 2024-2025 school year, please upload a copy of the transfer approval letter/email. If your child is already attending ADO on a transfer, you do not need to upload the transfer approval letter again.
