What to bring when you during your enrollment appointment:
- Proof of Residency in the Mountain View School District
Proof of residency acceptable documentation includes: a deed, a lease, current utility bill, current credit card bill, property tax bill, vehicle registration, driver’s license, DOT identification card. A district may require that more than one form of residency confirmation be provided. The Mountain View School District requires two proofs of residency at enrollment. However, school districts and charter schools should be flexible in verifying residency and should consider what information is reasonable in light of the family’s situation. If a student meets the requirements as stated in the McKinney-Vento Act, the provisions under the act will be followed by the school district.
A parent/adoptive parent, guardian, foster parent or a district resident having care or charge of a child may enroll a student in MVSD and the parent/guardian/resident must come into the office in person to complete the enrollment process. If a resident of the District requests that a student be enrolled whose parent(s) live outside the District, an Affidavit must be completed.
- Proof of Guardianship
Legal custody agreement (if applicable) a copy to be placed in the student’s file.
- Proof of Age
Birth certificate, notarized copy of birth certificate, baptismal certificate or record of baptism (notarized or duly certified) showing date of birth, valid passport, and paper from parent or relative signed in front of a notary (affidavit) showing date of birth or previous school record indicating date of birth.
- Record of Immunizations Required by Law
State law requires that a complete record of immunizations be provided. You can get a copy of your child’s health records from the school you are withdrawing from. Immunization records are also available from you doctor’s office. Your former district or medical office can also provide a written statement regarding required immunizations or required series are in progress, with records to follow.
If you have a copy of your student’s most recent report card or transcript, please bring a copy with you to the enrollment appointment. Also, if your student has an IEP, 504 or any special services requirements, it is helpful if you bring a copy with you to the enrollment appointment.
