Evidence of proof of residency must be presented in the Guidance Office and approved by the registrar prior to making an appointment.

The following documentation is required:

Category 1 (one document)

• Real Estate tax bill

• Mortgage papers

• Signed lease

• Agreement of sale

Category 2 (two documents showing name of parent or legal guardian and in-school boundary address)

• Driver’s license

• Voter registration card

• Library card (does not require address)

• Home/apartment insurance

• Public aid card

• Automobile registration

• Gas or electric bill (not telephone)

* The family must be physically occupying the residence on a daily basis.

Once documentation has been approved, you will be contacted to set up an appointment. The student and parent must attend. At the appointment you must bring a copy of the student’s birth certificate (certified translation if necessary); copy of any custody agreement; ISBE Student in Good Standing form if the student is coming from a public high school in Illinois; and any report cards or unofficial transcripts.

The appointment lasts about 90 minutes. The family first will meet with the registrar and then with a guidance counselor who will construct the student’s schedule. The student may begin school that day.
