New Student Registration Information
In order to register a NEW student in Douglas County Schools, we require that you provide the following information at the time of initial registration: Proof of Residency, Birth Certificate, Record of Immunization and Unofficial Transcript or Report Card. DCSD Transfer Students only need to provide a proof of residency when there is a change in residency.
Registration must be completed through DCSD Online Registration (OLR).
**PROOF OF RESIDENCY IN DOUGLAS COUNTY AND PONDEROSA ATTENDANCE AREA**

Proof of residency can only be one of the following:

**UNOFFICIAL TRANSCRIPT**
(Your previous school is required to provide you with an UNOFFICIAL copy of your transcript due to FERPA law) for all semesters in high school WITH DATES ATTENDED (this is ABOSLUTELY MANDATORY) as counselors cannot ensure correct placement in meeting graduation requirements without a transcript. (An unofficial copy is adequate for registration.) An 8th grade student going into 9th grade we will need the 8th grade report card.

If you are transferring during the school year, a withdrawal form (complete with withdrawal grades) from your previous school is necessary.

** SPECIAL NEEDS**
Please let us know at the time you make the appointment if you child has an IEP so we can have the appropriate teachers attend your registration. Please provide a current IEP or 504 Plan at time of appointment.
