Register a new account You will need to create an account with the online enrollment system before enrolling a child. There is a language selector above the parent login ID box. Use this language selector to choose the language that will be used to create the account. I will continue without choosing a language. English is automatically chosen if you do not choose Spanish.

Click the "Register New Account" link.

!

On the new account page, you will need to provide all the information marked with a red asterisk. Begin by selecting your preferred language. This language will be used to send you district information. Provide your first name and last name in the appropriate boxes. provide your phone number and make sure to include the area code. The phone number field cannot accept international numbers with the international prefix.

Do not put spaces between the numbers and the parenthesis are optional in the phone number.

!

This is an example of what the information might look like.

!

The "Login Information" section is where you will create an account for yourself to enroll a child with Ysleta. The first field is asking for a "Parent Login ID". This is an ID you choose. We recommend using the same name used in your email address so you don't have to remember another login ID. For example, if your email address is [email protected], then we recommend you use lorenzo121 for the parent login ID. You could also use [email protected] if it’s not too long.

Using a process like this helps assure that the account name isn't already taken.

The parent login ID must be 20 characters or less.
