Q: What documents will I need to provide for enrollment of my child?

State law and district policy require that parents bring the following information with them at the time of enrollment: TWO current utility bills as proofs of residency. Acceptable proofs of residency include: gas, water and electric bill. ONE residential housing/rental agreement. Acceptable proofs of residency include: a warranty deed statement, ad-valorem tax statement, mortgage statement, rental agreements, or a realtor’s or construction contract must be provided. Please note the intent to build a home does not constitute legal residency. If a home is in the process of construction, and a copy of the construction contract with the local address can be filed with the school system, a resident shall have approximately forty-five (45) school days from the date of initial enrollment to establish permanent residence in the home under construction. Telephone, Internet, Cable bills, checks, and drivers’ licenses are not accepted as proofs of residency.. Residency Affidavit (if applicable). Are you living with a friend or relative and cannot verify your address because no utility bills or renters agreements are in your name? You will need a Residency Affidavit in addition to the requirements listed below.. A current immunization record. Acceptable immunization documents include a record provided by a licensed physician or a public health authority. These documents must include dates and a signature, or stamp of the physician or health department official. A comprehensive list of immunization requirements by age can be found on the Oklahoma State Department of Health website by clicking HERE. PLEASE NOTE THAT STUDENTS MAY NOT ENROLL WITHOUT COMPLETE IMMUNIZATION RECORDS, PROOF THAT THE STUDENT IS IN THE PROCESS OF RECEIVING REQUIRED IMMUNIZATIONS, OR A COMPLETED EXCEPTION FORM. Exemptions to the immunization law may be granted in accordance with Oklahoma State Law and Oklahoma State Health Department requirements.. An official birth certificate. Parents must bring an official (certified) copy of the child’s birth certificate.
