Tri-County Christian School
Enrollment for the 2022-23 School Year is Now Open for Current Families!
A packet was sent home on Monday with the new tuition schedule and the directions to re-enroll your
student(s) for the fall. I also included the directions here for your convenience.

The preferred method is to complete your TCCS re-enrollment (and application for new students) online through
the FACTS Student Information System (Parents Web)*. Enrollment through this system retains your family’s
information from year to year in order to simplify the process following the initial year of enrollment.

   1. Accessing the FACTS Student Information System (Parents Web)

               Through your web browser, go to www.tricountychristian.org.
               Select Apply/Enroll from the home page.
               Select Reenrollment/Parents Web.
               The District Code is TC-IL.
               Your login and password were created when you originally enrolled your student online. This is
                the same login and password you use for your Parents Web account (to check your students
                grades, homework, etc.) If you have forgotten your login and/or password, you can click the
                link to reset it, or contact Joy Hotchkiss at 815-233-1876 or jhotchkiss@tricountychristian.org.

   2. Enrollment Process

               Once you are logged into Parents Web, click on the three lines in the upper left hand corner
                and select Apply/Enroll to open a drop down menu.
               For existing students, select Enrollment/Reenrollment
               Then select Click Here to Open Enrollment.
               You will see an enrollment packet available for each current TCCS student.
                   o If you do not see an enrollment packet for your current student(s), you are not registered
                      in the system as the enrollment parent. Please check with other parent on file to see if
                      they have a separate account, or contact
                      Joy Hotchkiss to change the enrollment parent.
               Follow the online prompts to complete the enrollment for each TCCS student in your family.
                   o Click Complete Review and Submit Enrollment with your payment of the per student
                      enrollment fee. This fee is $55 before April 1 and $70 after that date. Please note, a
                      student is not considered enrolled and their position is not secured in their class without a
                      paid enrollment fee.
               If you are adding a new TCCS student from your household, you will need to select Application
                (New Student). There is a $25 registration fee for all new students. The application must be
                submitted, then we will create an enrollment packet and return it back to you to complete the
                above enrollment steps.

*If you have any questions or need help with the online re-enrollment process, please contact Joy Hotchkiss
(815-233-1876 or jhotchkiss@tricountychristian.org).If you prefer to complete the process with a paper
application, contact the school office at 815-233-1875 or tccsoffice@tricountychristian.org for a copy.
