Welcome to PowerSchool Registration, the centralized School Choice application for New London Public Schools. PowerSchool Enrollment provides a convenient online portal for families to submit applications to our schools. As we continue our transition to becoming an all-magnet district, our schools offer students exciting opportunities to explore three comprehensive magnet pathways: International Education, STEM, and Visual & Performing Arts.
Our designated magnet schools welcome Connecticut residents from Kindergarten to 12th grade. Additionally, we offer non-magnet preschool options exclusively for New London families.
We are pleased to announce the starting of a unique, session-based Year Round Schooling for students. This program will be extended for grades K-5 for the 2023-2024 school. For more details, please visit our website or reach out to pappaj@newlondon.org or hills-papettij@newlondon.org.

All new families are required to create an account to submit an online application to apply and register.
