Enrollment & Registration

Which School Will My Child Attend and What Bus Services Are Available?
In order to attend an MISD school, the student must reside within Mansfield ISD. The Find My Bus system helps determine the school a student is eligible to attend and the available bus stops. If you need assistance in finding which campus your child is zoned to attend and/or what bus services are available, you may use the Find My Bus System or call the Department of Transportation (817) 299-6060.

Returning student registration can be completed online starting Wednesday, July 19. An email will be sent to current families when enrollment officially opens.

All students who attended MISD in the 2022-23 school year are highly encouraged to complete online returning student registration and provide proof of residency prior to schedule pickup. If any additional documents are required to fulfill enrollment, the campus will notify you.

Be sure to select the “returning student registration” button once you are logged into Family Access.

Mansfield ISD is implementing new guidelines for the 2023-24 school year limiting student use of cell phones and other personal electronic communication devices in schools. The new guidelines are designed to limit distractions and learning disruptions. For more information including a graduated list of consequences, view the Personal Electronic Communications Guidelines.

As the school year begins, all parents and guardians will be opted back into MISD’s email and text messaging system so they can receive the most current information from the district. Anyone who wants to opt out of the service can do so at any time. To learn more about updating your preferences, visit Skyward Family Access.

The Sales Tax Holiday (Tax-Free Weekend) will be held on August 11-13, 2023.

As in previous years, the law exempts most clothing, footwear, school supplies and backpacks priced under $100 from sales and use taxes, which could save shoppers about $8 on every $100 they spend.

To promote social distancing, the Texas Comptroller’s office wants all taxpayers to know that during the Tax-Free Weekend, you can also buy qualifying items online or by telephone, mail, custom order or any other means (including in-store purchases) tax free.

Get complete details about the Sales Tax Holiday.

Mansfield ISD requires all students to provide proof of residency each school year. Please be prepared to provide proof of residency in order to obtain schedules or view class list postings.

To view pickup dates and times for your school, please visit the campus website.

MISD schools have their own school supply lists. Please check with your school before making any purchases.

In some instances, schools also sell pre-packaged supplies that can be purchased online and delivered directly to the school before school starts. All school supply information can be found on the campus website under News & Announcements.

Devices are issued to students through an annual distribution schedule directed by the MISD Technology Department.

Get the Fall 2023 device distribution schedule with deployment dates and times as well as information on how to obtain optional device insurance coverage on the District-Issued Devices page (under the heading Beginning-of-Year Device Distribution).

The Mansfield ISD Student Handbook is designed to provide basic information that you and your child will need during the school year. The handbook is divided into two sections:

• Section I: Parental Rights - This section offers information to assist you in responding to school-related issues.
   
• Section II: Other Important Information for Students and Parents - This section is organized alphabetically by topic, and, where possible, further divided applicable to age and/or grade level, for quick access when searching for information on a specific issue.

Before you begin your back-to-school shopping, please review the updated MISD Student Dress Code.

Student riders can now get their bus number, stop time and location without ever making a call to the MISD Transportation Department.

MISD Transportation asks that all students riding the school bus this school term register for bus service through Track My Bus, the Edulog parent portal app. Upon registration, the app will reflect the student's designated bus number, stop times and locations.

In addition, users can keep track of bus delays and substitutions caused by weather, construction or other conditions affecting MISD buses and their routes.
