DoDEA Okinawa hosts spring registration drive
The spring registration drive is in the Ryukyu Middle School’s gymnasium and cafeteria April 9-12 from 8 a.m. to noon
for families with children who will attend Sure Start (Pre-kindergarten)-12th grade for the 2013-2014 school years. All
students attending Department of Defense Education Activity Okinawa schools must re-register for the next school
year, and this process enables the district to project student enrollment and maintain current student information. This
year’s registration drive offers families with children in multiple schools to re-register, or to register for the next school
year, one place to do so. Student transportation officials and registrars from all 13 DoDEA schools will be on hand to
answer any questions and assist parents in completing the registration process.
Sponsors will be asked to revalidate current information including your current quarters address, telephone numbers
and emergency contacts. If your quarters have changed, bring your current on-base housing assignment letter or offbase
lease with a map to your house. Active-duty sponsors must bring a copy of extension orders if their orders will
expire before Aug. 30. Civilian sponsors must bring their current year certificate of employment letter to verify full-time
employment or renewal agreement travel orders.
Kindergarten registration will be available for children who will be age 5 by Sept. 1. New students will need sponsor’s
orders/extension or verification of employment, birth certificate or passport, immunization records, and a copy of
current housing assignment letter/off-base housing lease. Sure Start applications will also be available for students
who will be age 4 by Sept. 1.
