BOARD POLICY  5111.6

 

School Admissions

 

A.      The district schools provide a free education to district residents between the ages of five (5) through twenty-one (21) who do not possess a diploma.

 

B.       A student is considered a resident of the district if he/she resides with a parent (s) or a person or a

government agency with legal custody whose place or residence is within the boundaries of the school district.  Students who do not legally qualify as residents may attend the Ironton City Schools only under open enrollment arrangements or by paying tuition.

 

C.       The Board will allow a child to begin the school year or second semester in the districts schools provided evidence can be submitted that the parent will, in fact, become a resident of the district within a period of 60 days.  Such evidence would include a contract completion date of a house under construction, or some documentary evidence that the parents would be moving into a rental or purchase property within the 60-day period.  Otherwise, the child will continue to attend school in his/her district of residence until such time as the parent (s) actually move into this school district.

 

D.      New entrants at all grade levels will be required to present at the time of enrollment a birth certificate

or other evidence to the school.

 

E.       A custodial parent to whom a child custody decree (or modified decree) is issued shall furnish a certified copy of the decree to the school.

 

F.       Proof of having received or being in the process of receiving required immunizations must be

submitted to the school person performing the enrollment procedure.
