Welcome to South Lake! - 6th Grade Enrollment

April 2026

Dear Sixth Grade Parent/Guardians:

Welcome to South Lake Middle School!  We are excited that you and your students will soon become South Lake Sharks. To prepare for registration, please review the following information below:

South Lake Registration: 

All students enroll in at least one elective class.  At South Lake, we offer trimester elective classes, year-long elective classes and support classes.  There is an option for students to enroll in more than one elective by enrolling in Bonus Period PE (explanation in video).  Students also have two days of Shark Time during the week to explore an area of interest, as well as academic and/or Social-Emotional Learning support; registration for Shark Time will take place at the beginning of next school year.

Please follow ALL of the steps below to indicate your preferences for 7th grade Electives.  You can find the full directions and links on our website at southlake.iusd.org/department/registration.
