New Student Registration

HILLGROVE HIGH SCHOOL
New Student* Registration

Location:
Hillgrove Guidance Office
4165 Luther Ward Road
Powder Springs, GA 30127

Please call Ms. Hughes at 678-331-1368 to schedule an enrollment appointment.

1. PARENT OR GUARDIAN MUST BE PRESENT.
    A. If the student lives with only one natural parent, Hillgrove must be provided
        with the appropriate legal documentation showing that the enrolling parent
        was designated by the court as the custodial parent. If the student is now
        living with the non-custodial parent, a notarized statement from that
        custodial parent giving permission for the child to live with the non-custodial
        parent and to attend Hillgrove High School is required.

    B. If the student is living with someone other than a natural parent and is under
        18 years of age, that individual must call 770-426-3341 for special enrolling
        instructions from Cobb County Schools. They will also be required to file for
        legal guardianship of the enrolling student through the Cobb County Probate
        Court, 32 Waddell Street, Building D, Marietta (770-528-1900).

    C. Any custody circumstance not covered under section 1 should be reviewed
        with a guidance office staff member to receive appropriate instructions
        concerning forms and/or documentation needed.

2. TWO DOCUMENTS SHOWING PROOF OF RESIDENCY: These must show that the parent(s) or guardian(s) with whom the child lives is living in the Hillgrove district. This could include a lease or contract for a home or apartment, plus a utility bill such as water, electric, natural gas, or telephone that shows both name and address.

If the student and his parent(s) or guardian(s) are living with another adult and/or family at a residence other than their own, then residency must be documented by the owning/leasing party. They must appear in person at Hillgrove with a lease or deed for their home or apartment, plus a bill that shows their name and address from one of the following utilities: water, electric, natural gas, or telephone. While at Hillgrove, they will sign appropriate documentation of the student’s residency status.

3. OFFICIAL WITHDRAWAL PAPERS AND CURRENT WITHDRAWAL GRADES:
These are required from the last school attended, unless the student leaves the previous school after the end of the entire school year. Placement is provisional until the student’s official transcript has been received to verify grade levels and course credits. Eligibility for competitive activities is determined by the student’s official transcript, which must be received before participation. If the student has completed the 8th grade, but hasn’t started 9th grade, documentation of promotion to 9th grade is required.

4. UNOFFICIAL TRANSCRIPT: Transcripts are needed from any and all former high schools; all courses taken, grades and credits must appear on transcripts. Complete and current addresses for those schools are also needed.

5. COPIES OF STANDARDIZED TEST SCORES.

6. COPY OF DISCIPLINE RECORD: A discipline record from the former school must be provided, or you may sign a release for Hillgrove to obtain this record.

7. SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER: An official copy of the student’s Social Security card/number or parent waiver.

8. HEALTH FORMS: Both the Georgia Certificate of Immunization (Form 3231) and the Georgia Ear, Eye, and Dental Exam Form (Form 3300) for your student are needed PRIOR to enrollment.

    A. If you have come to Georgia from another Georgia public school, your former
        school should have included these certificates in the permanent file and should
        have supplied you with a copy in the withdrawal forms to give to the next
        school.
    B. If you are coming to Hillgrove from any other school, you will need to take your
        student and all former immunization records (from private physicians, schools
        and any other sources) to one of the two local Cobb County Health
        Departments. They will review your health records, give your child and
        necessary immunizations, and then provide you with an appropriate form.

While at the Health Department, your student must also get a brief dental exam in order to issue the Georgia Dental Exam Form #3300. Do not bring any former dental records to the Health Department, as they cannot be used.
