A piece of software that facilitates online enrollment at Hays USD 489 remains down on Friday morning.

According to Amy Veatch, student software systems administrator, staff is still working on getting the powerschoolhays.com up and running.

In the meantime, online registrations are still available — but with one old-school step. Parents either need to visit the school or make a phone call to receive the “snapcode” used to enroll online. Once that access code is received, parents can then begin the online enrollment process.

As of late Thursday afternoon, more than 800 students had been enrolled in the district, Veatch said.
