Account Creation / Course Enrollment
ACCOUNT CREATION AND COURSE ENROLLMENT IS COMPLETED ONLINE ONLY
Website address: http://www.janesville.k12.wi.us
- Account Creation will begin on Monday, March 28th at 8:00 am.
- Course Enrollment will begin on Monday, April 4th at 4:30 pm.
This system helps parents manage their child’s summer school enrollment. In this system you will:
- Create an account - (make a username/password)
- Add Students
- Enroll students into summer school courses
- Obtain a copy of student’s schedule
In order to facilitate this and make things easier for you, we implemented some constraints:
- We require that you agree to our terms of use
- We require certain contact information from you
- We limit classes based on your child's age and/or grade level
- Enrollments are on a first-come, first-serve basis. Once a class fills, it will no longer appear on your enrollment screen.
How to use the system
The system is designed for you to "click around." With the exception of adding and dropping classes, there is really nothing you can do that will "harm" anything. so please feel free to explore all the links and buttons in the system.
One very important note: When filling out a web-form, the information you have typed is not saved until you click "Submit." This system has a timeout that lasts about 30 minutes (if you are idle for 30 minutes, it will log you out).
Please remember your login and password after you have created it!
The system has a very basic layout. At the top is the Menu bar containing links to Home, Help, Logout, etc. Once you log into the system, another bar will appear beneath that which indicates your progress in the system.
Completion Status:
- Parent Info
- Student Info
- Signups
- Verify
- Pay
- Schedule
As you complete each step, the box will change to indicating you have completed that step. The last step (payment) will remain red until the Summer School Office has received and recorded your payment. If you have questions, please contact the Summer School Office at 608-743-5042.
If, at any point, you do something that would make your progress incomplete (such as adding another student) these indicators should turn red again. However, there are some circumstances they may not, such as you cannot find any courses for one of your students, but you wish to finalize your registration. If you cannot find any courses for one of your students, this is okay! Just click onto Step 4 to verify what you have selected. If all looks good, click the "Continue to Payment" link that appears and this will tell the system that you are satisfied with your current selections.

The resistance of bacteria to antibiotics is a current medical threat. And yet, there is hope in new areas of research that are helping to address this threat, including research that is led by students. In this experience, students will learn research skills and techniques to perform their own scientific experiments. We will explore how viruses can be used to kill antibiotic-resistant bacteria. What we learn in the lab will facilitate a broader investigation of how mutations contribute to biological changes. This experience will include interactions with scientific experts from the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
This course is open to students from all high schools and will be held June 6-July 1 at Parker High School.

The too-cool-for-school “Burger Palace Boys” are stealing hubcaps and acting tough with their gum-snapping, chain-smoking “Pink Ladies”. The 1950s high school dream is about to explode in this rollicking musical that is both an homage to the idealism of the fifties and a satire of high schoolers’ age-old desire to be provocative and rebellious. At the heart of the story is the romance between hot-rodding greaser Danny Zuko and the sweet new girl in town, Sandy Dumbrowski. They had a secret romance in summer, but now back in the context of school, peer pressure and cliques make their love a bit more complicated. “GREASE” features the irresistible songs , "You're The One That I Want," "Grease Is The Word," "Summer Nights," "Hopelessly Devoted To You," "Greased Lightnin'" and many more. So dust off your leather jackets, pull on your bobby-socks and take a trip to a simpler time as Danny and Sandy fall in love all over again. REQUIREMENTS: Currently — Grades 7-11 PASSWORD REQUIRED |
