    ATTENTION! SPECIAL AFFIDAVIT VERIFICATION OF RESIDENCY

     

    The Madison County School District now requires that the parent/legal guardian of a student residing in a home not owned or rented in the name of the parent/legal guardian (ENROLLMENT BY SPECIAL AFFIDAVIT) must provide proof of residency at a designated location before the student may be enrolled.  Both the parent/legal guardian of the student and the homeowner/leaseholder of the property must meet with District personnel at the designated location beginning this year and every year forward. 

    We are having one remaining general session of special affidavit processing. The General Session will be held on Thursday, July 26, from 3:00 pm – 7:00 pm at Central Office for those parents that did not attend the session for their zone.  After July 26, special affidavits will be processed by appointment ONLY.  Parents will have to call the Central Office at 601-499-0800 to schedule an appointment.  No walk-ins will be taken.  Please review the checklist of the required documentation.
