Enrollment Requirements

  • All Schools Require the Following:


    Records of Immunizations - students must meet district and state immunization requirements. Bring proof of immunization from your family physician or a local health department. The parent or guardian then transfers this information to a certificate of immunization and signs the certificate to verify its accuracy.


    Emergency Information- the parent or guardian fills out a form during registration. Bring information such as the student's birth date, address and home phone, mother and father's employer and work phone numbers, name and phone number of emergency contacts other than parent/guardian (ideally this person or people will live near the student), student's doctor's name and phone number, names of any medications student takes and any medical condition student may have.


    Consent for Exchange of Information (if applicable) - if a student is transferring from another school, the parent or guardian must give their consent to transfer records from the student's previous school. It is helpful if the parent brings the name, address and phone number of the previous school.


    Transcript or Academic History (if applicable) - Students transferring from another school should bring academic records. The school may also ask if the student has been in any special programs in their previous school such as English Language Learner, special reading program, etc. To request your transcript, please contact Lisa Smythe-Rodino(GFHS) or Lori Hanson (CRHS). Be sure to include your (1)name, (2)date of birth and (3)contact information in the request.
