School District 37 Registration Deadline Hits Tomorrow

East Moline, IL · August 3, 2026

Setting the calendar for August begins with tonight’s council session and tomorrow’s school registration deadline — everything else can fall into place after.


The Lead

Families across the area face a tight timeline as online registration for School District 37 closes tomorrow, August 4. The digital deadline applies to all returning and incoming students ahead of the August 12 school year kickoff. This fall brings a major shift with the launch of the district's new redistricting plan, which reconfigures elementary attendance boundaries to balance classroom numbers and maximize facility resources across campuses. Parents must submit two digital proofs of residency through the Skyward portal to finalize enrollment. District staff are assisting families who missed last week's in-person setup sessions. Completing the digital paperwork before Tuesday night ensures students receive classroom assignments and busing routes without delay.
