Enrollment packets are available in the office, or online at the counseling center web site under forms.

Prior to enrollment, students are required to provide:

·        An unofficial transcript from the former school if your student is grade 10-12 (not required for students beginning grade 9).

·        A withdrawal form indicating the last school, date, grades, and schedule.

·        A local Centralia School District living address.

·        A parent or guardian to help with the enrollment process.

The following are helpful, but not required:

·        Former grades and transfer grades, including any guidance/discipline information.

·        A student cumulative portfolio (this is helpful because CHS students are required to complete a cumulative portfolio prior to graduation).

·        If participating in athletics, a fee and a completed medical form. Check with the athletics office.

Once the student is approved for enrollment, the student will visit the corresponding counselor, plan a course of study, choose classes, and participate in a welcoming tour.

A-G students will speak with Mr. Jim Parker, H-O with Mr. Matt Whitmire, and Ms. Deb Everley will work with P-Z students.

·        If transportation is necessary, please call 360-330-7628 to arrange bus service.

·        Free and reduced lunch forms are available in the counseling center. Income qualification guidelines are included in the form. If you qualify, please enroll in the free lunch program.

·        Students will be required to know and understand their rights and responsibilities as listed inthe student handbook. This includes dress codes, appeals, calendars of school activities, and much more.

·        Lockers, pictures, ASB Cards, and classroom needs can be procured as soon as the student is enrolled.  Begin classes with a notebook, dividers, pens & pencils, and a science notebook. Some classes require fees.

·        We offer many alternatives to a traditional high school setting including CAPS (alternative high school setting) and others. Please speak with your counselor regarding these educational options.

·         Special Needs and Circumstances:  If your student has an individualized education plan (IEP), has been in honors, advanced placement, gifted or advanced course work, English Language Learning, or has any other need, please indicate this at the time of enrollment, and we will provide you with the proper advice, which may include requesting more documentation.

·        If you and your student need interpretive language help, please contact David Ruiz at 360-330-7605 x6164 and we can provide services.

·        Students residing outside of the Centralia School District require district transfer paperwork from the sending district, must be signed and approved by the Centralia School District and have completed an approval process. Once the approval process is complete, the student will enroll with the normal enrollment procedures.
