New Student Enrollment Introduction

Welcome to Wilson County Schools!

We are pleased to offer Online Enrollment for parents/guardians to enroll K-12 students new to our district (this is not for current students transferring to another Wilson County School). You should find this to be an easy process that you can complete at your convenience from anywhere. All you need is an active email address and access to the Internet.

If you need assistance determining which school your student is zoned to attend, use the Bus Route Look-Up tool (available mid-July). If your home address does not return results using the Bus Route Look-Up Tool, please reach out to the Transportation Help Desk.  Be sure to include address, parent name, student name(s), grade level(s), and zoned school(s) if known.

• If your child was previously enrolled (currently withdrawn) in a Wilson County School and will be returning to the district, please don’t complete the online application process. You should already have a Family Access account therefore; you need to contact the School Registrar at your zoned school for instructions.
