Helpful tips to know before you begin the enrollment process:

All new K-12 and ECSE (Early Childhood Special Education) students entering Indianola Community School District must provide the proper documentation to establish residency within the Indianola Community School District as required by Iowa law. The documents provided must always state the student’s current physical address. A post office box is not an acceptable address for the purpose of determining residency.

If you do not know whether your residence is within the Indianola Community School District, contact Denise Moss, District Enrollment Coordinator, at 515.961.9500 x1506, enrollment@indianola.k12.ia.us, or go to the Warren County Assessor site.

A copy of one of the following documents will suffice, as long as it lists the custodial parent/guardian’s current address:
