What do ALL parents need to bring to
register?
•
Two (2) Proofs of Residency
NEW STUDENTS & RETURNING STUDENTS are
required to show (2) different proofs of residency for their zoned school on or
before registration day. Proof of residency is a current (within the last
30-60 days) utility bill - electric, gas, water - with the parent's name
and address printed on it. If parents have not been living at the
residence long enough to have a utility bill, a contract or lease on a house or
apartment will be accepted. Agency, government or court documentation
will also be accepted.
•
Immunization Records and Physical Examination Records
To get a Tennessee Health Card School Immunization Certificate,
parents should contact their child's doctor and schedule an appointment for a
kindergarten physical. At the time of the physical, the health card
Tennessee School Immunization Certificate will be issued.
Immunizations must be up to date.
•
Certified Copy of Child's Birth Certificate
•
Child's Social Security Card
Living with someone
in our zone?
If a student
and his/her custodial parent/guardian are living with another family in
the Hamilton County school zone, both families must be present to
sign a notarized Affidavit of Housing. Failure to provide accurate information
could interrupt your child’s enrollment process. The supporting family member
or representative must provide two (2) different proofs of current address to
be approved for that zone. Acceptable documents are current electric, water,
gas, or cable bills within the last 30-60 days, a current lease or mortgage,
and Agency or court documentation. In the case of an Agency,
a representative must mail or fax a letter to the Student Services Office
verifying the student/parent’s residence. If the family has moved into the
Hamilton County school zone from another town or state they must also provide a
copy of a Certified Birth Certificate and Social Security Card. Immunization
records must be on a Tennessee form (this can be done at the Health Department
at no charge or your private physician). After approval, you will take the
immunization form to the school who will notify the parent if a physical is
needed.
To avoid a long wait time in August,
parents and guardians are encouraged to bring documentation into the Student
Services Office between July 1 and July 30, 2016 if an affidavit of housing is
needed. Summer hours are Monday - Thursday from 8:30 am to 3:30 pm.
