Enrollment Information
Archuleta Registration for SY 2023-24
- Once a family is enrolled — or accepted — into a DPS school, the next step is registering with their school. This is the annual process of providing and updating student and family information on file, including emergency contacts, health information and more.
- (Online) If you missed the early bird registration for Archuleta (May 8-19), please register in late July. This means that if your student is an incoming 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th or 5th grader, then families should complete the online registration for 2023-2024 school year. To register online, sign in to Parent Portal, click on “See All Apps,” then click on “Online Registration” to verify or update your student’s information. Online registration can only be completed by the parent/guardian listed in the primary household of the student record. If you don’t have a Parent Portal account, please contact your school directly for registration information.
- (In-Person) You can also come to Archuleta for in-person registration on the dates (late July, early August) that will be announced through our app, facebook or on our website.
- Archuleta seats fill up fast so please secure a spot completing the online registration or coming in-person. If you have further questions, please email Irene Hernandez at irene_hernandez@dpsk12.net or Dede Maestas at dede_maestas@dpsk12.net or call 720-424-9888.
