Current Students

• Student Registration Updates in Skyward Family - Please login to your Skyward Family Access and update the following information so you are ready to begin the year.  This process is done every year, it is not New Student Registration. 
  • Update Emergency Contact information and phone numbers
  • Update your contact information - phone numbers and email addresses
  • Please be sure to check your communication preferences to include both email and text messages.  We will communicate weekly updates by email, and use text messaging for quick communication. We hardly had any parents opt in for text messaging and it’s much easier to use than the call system.  
  • Update student health information 

Students New to Bastian

• Visit our Registration tab on our website to enroll your student(s).

Kindergarten Students

• If you have a child that will be five years of age on or before September 1, 2024, your child qualifies for Bastian's 2024-2025 kindergarten program.  State law requires that all school districts in Utah abide by the same September 1st entrance cut-off date.
• You will be required, before enrollment in the Fall of 2024, to bring the child’s immunization record, a certified birth certificate (not a photocopy), and proof of residency. 

If you know of a neighbor who has a qualifying kindergarten child, please share this information with them.

We currently have two ways to register incoming students. One method is to register online. You will still need to physically bring in the needed documentation or you can come into our office.

Does your Bastian Student Love the Arts?

Would you like a project for your child to work on during summer break? The PTA Reflections program invites students from all grades and abilities to participate in the arts. Every year thousands of students across the nation create original works of art based on a theme in one or more of the following categories: Dance Choreography, Film Production, Literature, Music Composition, Photography, 2D Visual Arts, and 3D Visual Arts. The theme for the upcoming school year is "Accepting Imperfection." Each entry will be judged and some entries will move on from the school level to the next level. Every participant will be recognized. Entries don't need to be submitted until October, but students are welcome to start working on projects during the summer. Visit https://www.utahpta.org/ref for more info and all the official rules. Feel free to reach out to bastianelementarypta@gmail.com with questions. Happy creating!
