The details
The district requests that parents enroll their students before May 16 to ensure a smooth transition into the next school year.
According to the update, the earlier parents register, the better the district can plan since campuses are staffed based on registration numbers. Families can register all year long but by registering before the May 16 deadline, it ensures the district can avoid last-minute hiring or staff relocations when the school year begins.
GCISD officials ask that parents use the following platforms for registration:
- Returning students: Register via Skyward Family Access
- New families: Request a Skyward Family Access account before registering the new student
- Pre-K: Complete the pre-K online application
- New siblings: Log in to Skyward Family Access and add a new student by selecting the “New Student Online Enrollment” tab
Transfer students can also register for the 2025-26 school year for the following groups:
- Elementary STEM transfer requests, which will close April 21
- Kindergarten-12th graders living within the boundaries of Grapevine or Colleyville, but outside the boundaries of GCISD
- Students of city employees in Grapevine or Colleyville
- Non-residential students in kindergarten-12th grade living outside the boundaries of GCISD, but have a grandparent who resides in GCISD boundaries
- Children of GCISD employees
