Required Enrollment Documentation
Please gather the following documentation, which will need to be provided to the district at the end of the enrollment process.
Required Documentation for Enrollment:
1) Child's Original Birth Certificate (with seal)
2) Parent/Guardian Identification (valid driver's license or passport)
3) Verification of Residency (PA Manual 3-2, 4-1 & Board Policy AP-5111(2)(3):
There are two types of residency verification defined by HVS Board policy - Determinative and Corroborative. One determinative and one corroborative document can be requested. As the Pupil Accounting Manual requires only that residency be reasonably verified, the secretary can reserve the right to request additional pieces as needed to reasonably verify district residency.
Determinative residency proof would include a MOST RECENT copy of a document that shows a residential address; something tied to a physical address includes the following:
Closing Statement/Mortgage Document/Leasing Paper
Property Tax Statements
Utility Bills (Electric, Gas, Water, Garbage) (A cell phone bill is not tied to an address and therefore is not acceptable as determinative proof)
Rent Receipts
2. Corroborative residency proof would include:
Other bills/mailings/documentation with name & address to home not specified above.
4) Official Immunization Record from doctor's office or health department - Upon enrollment, state law mandates that you must provide the school with a record showing that your child has received at least one dose of the following immunizations (Parents must then follow up to complete the required vaccinations).
