Thank you for your interest in enrolling in the Canton City School District. 

Our district utilizes an online registration process (OLR). Please follow the steps outlined below. Don’t forget to check out the FAQs and links on this page for additional enrollment information. 

If you need any assistance or have questions, please contact our Student Enrollment Center at 330-438-2525. Our registrars are happy to help you through the process.

Registration Steps:

Step 1: Gather your required documents. 

Step 2: Click the link to Infinite Campus OLR. Make sure you select the correct school year.

Step 3: Complete each of the enrollment forms/questions and upload all of the required documents. If you are unable to upload documents, please call the Student Enrollment Center at 330-438-2525 to schedule an appointment to bring in your documents, or for assistance over the phone. We are here to help. 

Step 4: Once you have submitted your application, one of our registrars will review and process your enrollment, provided all of the necessary documents have been uploaded. 

Step 5: A registrar will either email or call you once enrollment has been finalized with confirmation of the school of enrollment, start date, and information on how to set up your Parent Portal account. 

Step 6: Set up your Parent Portal. The parent portal allows you to view your student’s data such as attendance, grades, schedules, etc. 

Note: Registrations not completed within 30 days will be deleted.
