Baldwin PTA ROAR

March 2, 2026

26-27 Race to Registration
Enroll Austin
Enroll EVERYONE

Registration is CRITICAL to Baldwin Fall Staffing. 2026-2027 enrollment is officially open and we ask that EVERYONE take a few minutes this week to log in to your Parent Portal and complete enrollment (including uploading your annual registration forms). Even if you are leaving Austin ISD, please log in and select that option on the enrollment site.


Our goal is 100% of ALL families enrolled by April 1st. Baldwin increased to 35% last week. Please help us reach that finish line early! Your support helps us ensure our Bobcats get the best possible experience next year. Thank you!!
