There has been a change in school board policy which requires parents/guardians to provide the school a notarized copy of the Affidavit of Residence each year the child is enrolled in a Fulton County school.

The Fulton County School System now requires that all parents/guardians submit a notarized Affidavit of Residence form to the school.  This requirement applies to both current and new students and will be required annually.

The purpose of the Affidavit is to make sure that only students who reside in Fulton County attend our schools.  Our reputation as one of the best school systems in Georgia has resulted in some families who live outside of the Fulton attendance zones finding creative ways to enroll their children in Fulton schools.  These families are taking advantage of our outstanding programs and services – without paying the Fulton taxes that are used to fund our schools.  The notarized Affidavit legally verifies that your child resides in our school attendance zone, or has an approved hardship or other placement.

A copy of the form is available from the school office and can be downloaded here:

Please complete the form, have it notarized, and return it during the first week of the school year.
