Welcome to Battle Creek Public Schools
The health and safety of our students, families and staff are our top priority as we return to school this fall. We believe our reopening plan represents the best possible balance between ensuring that our students can continue to learn and minimizing the risk of the spread of COVID-19 in our community.
Parents of new students: enroll today!
New Students
If you are new to BCPS and do not have children currently enrolled, you will be prompted to create a Skyward Family Access account to enroll online.
(If your child is already a student at BCPS, you do not need to complete this step.)
Documents needed for enrollment:
- Original (legal) birth certificate
- Immunization (shot) records
- If foster care placement, need copy of this placement notice
- Address verification with one of the following documents: current utility statement (electric, gas or water), rental or lease agreement with address, or property tax statement
- Photos or scans of enrollment paperwork such as proof of address can be submitted via email given current stay-at-home orders. For enrollment support please email: sbrunner@battlecreekpublicschools.org or call and leave a message at (269) 965-9481.
