LR schools: Check-in via portal a must

The Little Rock School District is reminding parents about the requirement for online check-in via the district’s Gateway Online Registration portal in advance of the first day of school Monday .

Parents of students who are new or are returning to the district and have not completed the online check-in process can do so by clicking on the “Registration” icon — a picture of a schoolhouse and a magnifying glass — on the district’s website: lrsd.org.

Once a parent is on the district’s Student Registration page, the link to the actual registration portal is at the top of the column on the right.

After the online process is complete, parents will receive a message that the registration is “pending,” which is an indication that their child’s information will be uploaded and become a part of the student’s permanent record at the school.

Parents can access the Gateway online portal by cellphone or by computer. Computer access is available to parents in the Parent Center at each of the schools this week.

Any student not checked in for the new school year before the first day will not be admitted to class until the online process is completed by a parent/ guardian.

More information on the registration process is available from Pamela Smith, the district’s director of communications, at (501) 447-1030.
