Gather Required Enrollment Documents
-
CMS requires a parent or guardian to provide the following documents to enroll:
- Certified Copy of Birth Certificate (Birth Certificate Requirement Form)
- Immunization Immunization Records
- Proof of Residency (View Acceptable Documents) Please note: if you cannot produce a current utility bill, a home or apartment lease contract will suffice until you can provide a current utility bill (required before starting school).
- Last Report Card / Unofficial Transcript (high school)
- Driver's License of Enrolling Parent/Guardian
- Submit Additional Documentation/Qualification Criteria for Pre-K Students (required to enroll in the free program)
- Social Security Card (Optional)
Please be sure to review the documents accepted for proof of residency and double-check that your child's immunization records are up to date and reflect all the requirements of the state of North Carolina, which may vary from other states/countries.
Finalize Enrollment
Once you have completed the online registration form and uploaded the required documents, you will see a confirmation page. However, enrollment is not completed until CMS district staff review and processes the documentation.
CMS will process new student registrations in the order they are received. Parents will receive an assignment letter once enrollment has been processed and is complete.
