Welcome to Capital School District

Hello, Future Senator!
Welcome to the Student Registration Portal


There are many opportunities within the Capital School District, and we are excited to begin your child’s registration process!  


Important Information for Families: Online Registration to close June 11th, 2025             


Online Registration will close for Capital School District on Wednesday, June 11th, 2025. Paper Registrations will continue to be available and may be submitted to your school. Please scroll to the bottom of this page to download a copy of our paper registrations and bring the completed forms to the front office of the school your child will attend. To determine what school your student will attend, please use the Delaware School Locator linked here. If you do not have access to a printer, the school’s office staff can provide you with a copy. Each school’s phone number is listed below.


Capital is closing out online registration early, as our district is changing online student enrollment systems, per the end of a State of Delaware contract. Please bear with us as we make this transition to a new system. We are hoping to have online registration back up by early October, but paper registrations will remain available throughout that time. Thank you for choosing Capital!
