Back to School Registration 2024-2025

 

August 7 & 8 from 2:00 – 6:00 p.m.


Parking is available in the main parking lot off of Anthony Blvd. and St. Joe River Dr., in the lots behind the high school and at Zollner Stadium. Please enter through the main school entrance at Door 1.

 

Many forms have been made available online and can be found via links in this memo. If you are not able to find and print forms online, they will be made available to you in person at registration.


This event is required for all CLHS parents and students.  


  • Parents will finalize registration for your student, verify accurate contact information, learn how you can volunteer, and meet the school nurse to start the school year smoothly.  
  • Students will get their school picture taken, pick up their ordered school uniform apparel, receive their books, locker assignment and lock, and meet Jared (the comfort dog).  
  • Students and parents will learn about the Cadet Café lunch options, athletics, clubs and activities available at CLHS.

 

What can be done before Back to School Registration? 


Go to FACTS Family Portal where you will find your student’s grades and your tuition and payment plan information.

  • Make sure your enrollment is complete (“apply/enroll”)
  • Set up your payment plan (“financial”) 
  • Update your family information: address, phone numbers, email address, who receives school emails, make sure your student’s birth city and state are entered
  • How to create my FACTS Family Portal:
    • Go to the login page
    • Click “Create New Family Portal Account”
    • Create an account using the email that CLHS has on file for you

Open email with instructions on how to create a username and password

  • District code is CON-IN

Helpful Hint: Setting up your tuition payment plan before arriving at registration will save you time. Staff will be available at registration to assist you with these tasks if you are not able to complete them ahead of time, but we recommend doing this before coming in for registration. You won’t be able to access your student’s class schedule until the tuition payment plan tasks are completed.

2024-2025 School Year Theme: ENDURE...With Christ at the Center

"Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God. Consider him who endured from sinners such hostility against himself, so that you may not grow weary or fainthearted."

- Hebrews 12:1-3
