Proof of Residency
As part of a continued focus on maintaining fiscal accountability to our taxpayers and patrons, ensuring our tax dollars are spent on Mid-Buchanan County R-V students, the District requires proof of residency for all students annually. STUDENTS WILL NOT BE PERMITTED TO ENROLL OR SIGN UP FOR CLASSES UNTIL RESIDENCY IS VERIFIED.
Proof of Residency Instructions
Current and new students must complete a Residency Verification Form AND provide two of the following documents. (Note: Documents provided in person must be original documents.)
Documents provided for verification must:
Include parent(s)/guardian(s) name(s) and current address.
Be dated for the current fiscal school year, but also within 30 days of the date of verification. For example, if the document is provided on July 25, 2019, it must be dated June 25, 2019 or later. As further clarification, a new student enrolling on November 1, 2019, must provide an acceptable residency verification document dated no earlier than October 1, 2019.
Acceptable Documentation:
Utility bill (electric, gas, sewer, or water). No final or disconnect notices accepted.

Unacceptable Documentation:

If you have multiple students in the District, only one proof of residency form is required for the entire family.
