Proof of Residency. According to NYS Law, in order to register a child in the City School District of New Rochelle, the child must reside with a parent or guardian who is physically domiciled within the school district’s boundaries and who demonstrates an intention to remain in the district permanently. Three (3) proofs of physical presence are required from among the following: a current signed and dated lease, current home mortgage statement, a Landlord Statement or Landlord Affidavit (Available at the Registration Center), current pay stub with address, recent income or property tax statement, current utility bill, Section 8 Voucher, or documents issued by the federal, state, or local government with name and property address.
If the child to be registered resides within a custodial family, a visiting/host family, or in a family unable to present proof of residency, the parent or guardian will need to provide an affidavit which shows home address. In custody situations, a Custodian and a Parent Affidavit is required; in visiting and host situations, both a Host and Visiting Family Affidavit is required; and, in a situation where the parent is unable to provide residency proof, a Third Party and Landlord Affidavit is required. Additional documents may be requested by the District. Affidavits can be downloaded and copied from the district website. Affidavits will also be available at the pick-up and drop locations stated in #2 on first page. Ask the Security Officer for the affidavit you require. Affidavits must be included in your packet of returned forms. If you need assistance, please call the Registration Center, registrars will happily provide assistance.
UPK parents whose child will attend a Community Collaborator pre-school need to complete the School District Registration Form and provide an adult photo ID, proof of age for your child and 3 proofs of residency only.
Once documents are submitted, a review will be made by intake registrars and medical staff to determine whether documents and forms are correct and complete or if additional information is needed. In this case, the parent will be contacted. Parents who successfully complete the registration process will also be notified to receive district acknowledgement.
We look forward to welcoming you into our school community!
