McKinney ISD has moved up the 25-26 registration timeline for returning students. The priority is ensuring that all residential students secure their place in MISD. To help us serve our students effectively, we encourage you to complete your child’s registration as soon as possible. Registering early allows district leaders to make informed decisions regarding class sizes, teacher assignments, and campus needs. Snap codes for students who were enrolled with MISD as of February 20, 2025, were emailed to guardians. To learn more about enrollment for the upcoming school year visit MISD's website: https://www.mckinneyisd.net/page/enrollment
