Not sure why but I think it has to do with last minute out of area residents trying to slip in during the craziness of the start of school. Despite the fact that you are a returning family, unless you can prove with a cancelled registraion fee check or bank register showing the debit for said fees, you may be out of luck. Also, you may want to contact records and see where your student's records are being held. If you did register, they would have been moved to the school you registered to (high school, in your case). If they see you as a dropped student, they will probably be in the records dept at Lincoln Center. I am basing this on my experience hunting for my son's records a few years back when they got "Lost" between schools. Good Luck....but try to find some proof of your registration...cancelled checks, etc. It WILL help. They can't really argue if they took your money. Also, it will help as I am sure you are going to get hit with higher fees then you paid before due to the new student status and the late registration they say you have.
It was pointed out to me that their website states to call the school AFTER Aug. 11th for returning students that aren't registered. Even though I DID register her, I had a feeling there would be a fight on my hands... Back when I first thought there would be a problem, it was Aug. 13th. I called the HS, they transferred me to this woman (Ms. Moyer) who told me that's for new students. When I pointed out to her that it even states at the top of the webpage "RETURNING STUDENT REGISTRATION" She still argued with me that it was for new students!! Uggghhh
