Enrollment Information

Any student from the age of 14 to 21 is eligible to enroll at SDS. Because SDS is a public school, there is no cost for tuition. Come in any time to meet teachers and tour the school.

Students can enroll immediately and start classes right away. Because of our unique individualized classes, no enrolling student will ever miss any course content or be behind in classes.

Bring in any of the following required materials to save time during the registration process:

  • A photocopy of complete Student Immunization Records.
  • A photocopy of the student’s birth certificate.
  • Academic Transcripts from all high schools previously attended. Sonoran Desert School will provide each student with a transcript request form or will request transcripts if supplied with a signed form.
  • A Withdrawal Form from the student’s last high school (if student attended within the last 6 months).
  • A $50.00 textbook damage deposit (refunded if there is no textbook damage)

In addition, enrolling students need to complete the following forms provided by the school:

  • Arizona Residency Documentation Form (parent or guardian signature required)
  • A Student Information Form (parent or guardian signature required)
  • Acceptable Computer Use Policy Form (parent or guardian signature required)
  • Field Trip Consent Form (parent or guardian signature required)
  • Directory Release Form (parent or guardian signature required)

Once enrolled, students will attend a short orientation, complete diagnostic tests in reading and math, then start their classes with one-on-one help from their teachers–all in the same day!
