What is the first step for families new to Toledo Public Schools or returning from non-TPS locations?
The first step is to register the student or students in the district. Families go to their neighborhood school to register.
Once registration is underway, the family then will begin to receive necessary written communications from the district about the uniform program and other matters important to a student attending a Toledo Public School.
