Further, the parent or guardian must complete and sign a re-registration form at the time of re-registration. All Documents must be notarized.

If the residence is a leased or rental property, then the lessee must provide the school district in addition to the proof of residency a Permission To Reside Form from the owner of record or his agent, granting permission for the parties involved to reside at the residence

Appointments are required for Multiple Occupancy and Section 1302 re-registrations.
