Student Enrollment

Welcome to the Jefferson-Morgan School District. We look forward to welcoming your child to our schools.

This page provides information and forms to help you begin the student enrollment process. Please complete the applicable forms on this page and bring them with you to your enrollment appointment at the District Administration Office, located at the front of the Middle/High School.

An appointment is required to complete the registration process.

Required Enrollment Documentation

Pennsylvania requires certain documentation when enrolling a child in school. Families should provide the following:

1. Proof of the Child’s Age

Acceptable documentation may include:

• Birth certificate or notarized copy of a birth certificate
• Baptismal certificate or certified record of baptism showing the date of birth
• Notarized statement from a parent or relative indicating the child’s date of birth
• Valid passport
• Prior school record indicating the child’s date of birth
• Other acceptable documentation establishing the child’s age

The District will consider other appropriate documentation based on the child’s and family’s circumstances.

2. Immunization Information

Acceptable documentation may include:

• The child’s immunization record
• Written confirmation from a previous school or medical office that required immunizations have been administered or that a required series is in progress
• Verbal confirmation from a previous school or medical office that required immunizations have been completed, with records to follow

Exceptions or additional timelines may apply under Pennsylvania law, including for students with applicable medical or religious exemptions, students experiencing homelessness, students in foster care, and certain students transferring into a Pennsylvania school.

3. Proof of Residency

Documentation should contain the name and current address of the child’s parent or guardian. Acceptable documentation may include:

• Current deed
• Mortgage statement dated within the past three months
• Active residential lease agreement
• Utility bill dated within the past three months
• Internet bill dated within the past three months
• Credit card bill dated within the past three months
• Bank statement dated within the past three months
• Tax bill dated within the past three months
• Insurance document dated within the past three months
• Mail sent within the past three months by the federal or state government, such as benefits information, voter registration, or tax documents

The District may request more than one form of residency confirmation when appropriate. However, the need for additional residency documentation will not delay a student's enrollment.

4. Parent Registration Statement

A parent or guardian must complete the required Pennsylvania Parent Registration Statement as part of the enrollment process.

Additional Information We May Request

To help the District appropriately serve your child and obtain necessary educational records, families may also be asked to provide additional information, including:

• Parent or guardian picture identification
• Health or mental health history
• Physical or dental examination records
• Academic records
• Attendance records
• Individualized Education Program (IEP) or other special education records
• Documentation of physical examinations
• Student education, registration, or disciplinary records

These additional items are not conditions of enrollment. A student's enrollment, admission, or attendance will not be delayed because these documents have not yet been provided.
