Guardianship

  • Anyone registering a student who is not the parent of the child must provide an Affidavit which indicates that they are the guardian or person whom has custody and control of the child OR other proof such as a judicial custody order or an order of guardianship. The Affidavit must describe how total and permanent custody and control was obtained, whether through guardianship or otherwise. The District has Parent/Guardian Affidavits which can be utilized. Although the District typically requires both, the Parent and Guardian Affidavits to be submitted, the District understands that there may be some circumstances in which only one of the Affidavits is available. In such circumstances, the District will accept one Affidavit. Affidavit forms are available in the Central Registration Office.

A school principal may extend this to a 30 day period on a case-by-case basis when a student has transferred from another state or country and can show a good faith effort to get the necessary certificate or other evidence of immunization.
