If your child has not been fully registered by the start of school, they must go to the main office with you to complete that process with our Office Manager, Helen Cleary. Unregistered students cannot go to the classroom until the registration process is complete.

The lottery is closed but we are still accepting applications.  Furthermore, there are still open spots in first grade which will be given out on a first come basis provided the student meets all of the TRAILS/ASD registration requirements. You can pick up an application at the Front Office of TRAILS Outdoor School, or you can print one here

Completed applications can be emailed to helen.cleary@ashland.k12.or.us or may be physically mailed to/dropped off at the following address:

Enrollment Priorities:

  • Returning Students

  • Siblings of currently enrolled students (priority by date of family enrollment)

  • All other applicants are selected by lottery based on grade level openings
