Southington Public Schools

The mission of the Southington Public Schools (SPS), founded in 1779, is to have students engage in a range of educational experiences to become informed, adaptive problem solvers who effectively communicate, rise to challenges, and are committed to improve themselves and their communities.

The Southington Board of Education oversees eight elementary schools, two middle schools, a high school, and an alternative high school providing educational services via over 725 staff members for over 6,200 students in Southington, CT School District.

For the Kindergarten Registration process, we have created a page to help walk you through the process.

For other grades, to start New Student Registration for Southington Public Schools you must first complete online registration. Once you have completed the online registration, you will then need to provide the following information to tcolegrove@southingtonschools.org.
