My address is not in San Marcos, so I cannot get past the first step. What do I do?
We believe that has been fixed. Most likely you are on an Intra- or Inter- District Transfer. Click here for pdf to show you how.

When can I drop off items?
It does say in Online Registration that you can drop off "additional items", but that was intended to be essential documents like Residency Verifications documents. Those "Additional Items" will be accepted at some later date, once we have a COVID-19 protocol to accept.

I completed Online Registration, but I still have documents to upload. How do I turn them in?
We have staff,painstakedly, verifying documents. If your registration is missing key documents, they will "deny" your registration then reach out to you. Then they will open up your registration again to upload those documents.
