Website for SCCS Registration and Application

To re-enroll by completing the Annual Information Update in PowerSchool or to apply to become an SCCS/JFK student, please visit apply.sccsiowa.org.

The registration and application process will take you several minutes and require you to either update or enter names, grades, primary and emergency contact information, medical information, race, ethnicity, religious affiliation, and more. Careful verification and entry of this information is critical. You may want to have this information at hand before you begin the process. The process also works best when completed on a laptop/desktop rather than a mobile device.

Make sure you select the 2026-27 school year.

Financial Assistance

Iowa’s K-12 Educational Savings Account (ESA) Families

ESA for 2026-2027 – The State of Iowa uses a program called Odyssey for processing all K-12 ESA information. For the 2026-2027 school year, all families that reside in Iowa will be eligible for this K-12 tuition assistance.

  1. All Iowa families will need to apply and follow all steps and meet all deadlines in order to be approved. The website is https://educate.iowa.gov/pk-12/educational-choice/education-savings-accounts.

  2. The ESA application for the 26-27 school year is now open.

  3. ESA funds may be used by approved families to go towards K-12 tuition and other qualified education expenses. For returning families, extra ESA funds may also be used for SCCS registration fees.

  4. For fall and spring semester, once tuition is entered into Odyssey by the SCCS Business Office staff, a parent must go into his/her Odyssey account and approve the tuition for each student so the State will send the funds to SCCS. Odyssey will send an email as a reminder.

Please follow the instructions below for either New Families or Returning Families.

Registration

New Families

Any new families will click “I’m new to SCCS” when going to https://apply.sccsiowa.org/. This is only for families new to Scott County Catholic Schools. Caution: Even current preschoolers at JFK are considered returning students (see below). If a family has ANY child at ANY Scott County Catholic School, the family is returning (see below).

Make sure you select the 2026–27 school year.

Registration/Application Fee

A $150 registration/application fee per 3yo, 5yo, and kdg-12th grade student is due at the time of registration. Students who have not yet had an ESA account do not yet have ESA funds in their accounts. Therefore, they cannot use ESA funds for registration/application. Registration/application fees are non-refundable unless the school does not have space for the child.
