Registering a student in the Bangor School Department
Parents of new and current students in Bangor schools are requested to download either the Registration Form (for new students) or the Update Form (for returning students) and return the form to your child's school as soon as possible before the start of the 2009-2010 school year. This process will greatly assist the compilation and accuracy of data entered into the district's new student information system.
After the start of the school year, parents or legal guardians of students new to the Bangor School Department are asked to make an appointment during regular school hours with the guidance counselor of the school where the student will attend.
