Step 3: Bring the enrollment materials to your base school

Once you’ve completed the form online, please wait for information from your child's base school regarding the completion of the enrollment process. To expedite your student’s enrollment, upload the following documents: 

1. A certified copy of your child's birth certificate. (Need a birth certificate? Parents of children born in Wake County may now order certified birth certificates on the County Register of Deeds website.)
2. Proof of your address (domicile) in the name of the birth parent or legal custodian, which must be one of the following:
   • Current water, gas, or electric bill that is no more than 30 days old,
   • Newly signed lease that is no more than 60 days old,
   • Settlement statement that is no more than 60 days old or
   • Offer to Purchase agreement
     Agreements with a closing date no later than 45 days out may be used by existing Wake County residents as proof of address. Non-Wake County residents can use them only to pre-enroll for the next school year prior to June 30, and only if the purchase closing date is on or before June 30. Offer to Purchase agreements for homes under construction may require additional documentation of work completed. They may not be used as proof of residence to enroll or pre-enroll at a capped school or a designated overcrowded school.
3. A photo ID of the birth parent or legal custodian
4. Your child's immunization record
5. Any custody documents

Step 4: Obtain and submit proof of immunizations 

State law requires these vaccinations before a student enters kindergarten and 7th grade.  

New requirement: State law now requires all rising 12th graders to get a meningococcal vaccine booster before starting 12th grade. Parents will need to provide a copy of their child’s immunization record showing proof of the meningococcal vaccine before the first day of school in August 2020.
