Required Documents
The following documents are required for student registration at any time.

  • Current Proof of Household Income -- Pre-K Students Only
  • Student's Birth Certificate
  • Student's Social Security Card
  • Student's Most Current Shot Records
  • Family's Proof of Residency (current utility bill)
    • Statements that can be used:
      ​electricity, gas, cable, home phone, trash, internet, satellite, or water bills.
    • Statements that cannot be used
      insurance, cell phone, tax statements
    • Bills must be current and show parent’s name and service address
  • Records From Previous School (grades 9-12 require a transcript from previous school)
  • Parent's/Guardian's Identification (driver's license, military ID, passport, etc.)


Special Circumstances
In non-traditional arrangements where parents/guardians/students live with another family, the utilities often belong to the homeowner.  In such cases, the homeowner may complete a Residency Affidavit  (Spanish version), have it notarized, and then the affidavit, along with the homeowner's current utility bill, may be used to prove the student's residence in the district.

In cases where students live with a temporary guardian(s), in the absence of parents, the temporary guardian(s) must be given authorization to make educational decisions for the student, view his/her information, etc.  Dayton ISD's Exercise Parental Rights form may be used to give authorization to the temporary guardian.  The form must be notarized.
