Welcome!

The faculty, staff, and administration would like to take this opportunity to welcome you and your future student to the Shikellamy School District!

Instructions

Students who live beyond our district boundaries can attend by paying tuition.  Tuition rates are determined by the Pennsylvania Department of Education and are subject to change each year.

  • Kindergarten pupils must be five (5) years old on or before September 1.
  • Our registration process begins with the online registration system.  To use the system, you must first have an active email address.  If you do not have an email address, you can create a free Gmail account, please click here.
  • We estimate that the online portion of the registration process will take roughly 20 minutes per student.  
  • This registration process is accessible via a smart phone if you do not have access to a computer. If you prefer to use a computer and do not have access to one, please call (570) 286-3700 x2131 to arrange for the use of a school computer at the Island Park Administration Center.  This office, and the registration process, is open year round.
