Transcript of Record and Grading Scale from Previous School

All academic, disciplinary,
and special education records from a student’s
previous school(s). Any student who is enrolling in
Cobb County School District for the first time in
grades seven or higher must provide a certified copy
of his/her scholastic and discipline record from the
school previously attended. In lieu of providing a
certified copy of a discipline record and
transcript, the student may be admitted on a
conditional basis by submitting a properly executed
release authorizing the District to obtain such
information from the school previously attended. In
order to place students in the appropriate courses,
it is essential that a copy of the transcript be
brought to registration. A recent report card or
withdrawal form is helpful, but does not ensure
placement in required courses. The counselor cannot
be responsible for accurate placement if no school
records are present. A grading scale from the
previous school should be included in the school
records.
