Starkville – The Starkville Oktibbeha Consolidated School District (SOCSD) is hosting a Centralized Registration Help Center from July 8 to July 10 to assist parents with online school registration for the 2025-2026 school year. The event will take place at Partnership Middle School and is specifically tailored for families needing guidance through the registration process.
The Centralized Registration Help Center will be equipped with registration stations and devices to aid parents in completing the online registration form. SOCSD staff will be on hand to answer questions and provide assistance in navigating the registration system. Paper copies of residency and immunization documents can also be submitted during this event for those who cannot upload them digitally. However, class schedules and teacher assignments will not be available during the centralized registration days.
Registration will be open on the following days and times:
- Tuesday, July 8: 10:00 AM – 6:00 PM
- Wednesday, July 9: 7:00 AM – 3:00 PM
- Thursday, July 10: 10:00 AM – 6:00 PM
Parents are encouraged to visit the Back to School Dashboard on the district’s website for additional information regarding the registration process and requirements. The SOCSD is implementing ParentSquare, a new communication platform set to launch in Spring 2025. This platform will streamline communication by interfacing with PowerSchool to provide parents with updates via email, text, and voice messages. ParentSquare will replace the existing systems, SchoolMessenger and SchoolStatus, bundling all information into a single tool for ease of use.
For this upcoming school year, all returning students are required to register online. Proof of residency must be provided, and specific documents will be necessary for verification. New students are required to present a birth certificate and an immunization form. For those who still seek assistance post-event, registration support will continue to be available Monday through Friday from 7:30 AM to 3:30 PM at various school offices across the district. This is part of SOCSD’s commitment to facilitating the discovery and development of each student’s passion, purpose, and potential, following their motto, #ExpectExcellence.
The Centralized Registration Help Center aims not only to ease the registration process for parents but also to ensure that every student is adequately enrolled and ready for the coming school year. By providing direct assistance and resources during this crucial time, the SOCSD hopes to create a smooth transition into the new academic calendar while enhancing communication and support for families in the district.
