🚨 REMINDER 🚨 To assure that your student is assigned to a bus route for the first day of school, please complete registration by Aug. 2.

Registration for the 2024-2025 school year is now open!! 📢 As we prepare for the upcoming 2024-2025 school year, we are implementing a new student information system called FOCUS SIS. This change is necessary because Tyler SIS, our previous system, has been discontinued. To ensure a seamless registration process, you will need to create an account in FOCUS SIS and link your child(ren) to your account. Once completed, you'll be able to register your child(ren) for the 2024-2025 school year. To complete this process, you will need your student’s ID number and PIN, which were sent out this morning. A video link explaining this process has been shared as well. More information can be found on the district website at www.raypec.org/page/focus-for-parents Additionally, school fees are not yet posted in the parent portal. Parents/guardians will be able to pay any necessary fees in early August. We appreciate your cooperation and understanding as we transition to this new system. For any questions or assistance during the enrollment process, please don't hesitate to reach out to our support team by emailing registration@raypec.org. Thank you for your ongoing support of Raymore-Peculiar School District.

Happy 4th of July from the Ray-Pec School District! 🇺🇸 All district offices will be closed in celebration. Be safe and have fun! 🎉
