ADMISSION

RECORDS,

REQUIRED

STUDENT

A student being admitted to a school must present a certification of birth

and school records from the last attended school. (If applicable, a copy

of any custody order or power of attorney or caretaker authorization

could also be required.)

Within 24 hours of the child’s entry into school, a “school official” must

request the pupil’s official records from the school most recently

attended. If that school has no records, or if the records are not

received within 14 days, or if the family does not present evidence of the

certification of birth, the principal of the school must notify the local law

enforcement agency with jurisdiction of the possibility that the child may

be a missing child.

However, a school cannot deny admission to a child placed in a foster

home or residential facility solely because the child cannot present proof

of date of birth at the time of admission. Under such circumstances, the

child’s parent, custodian, or guardian must provide that proof within 90

days after the child’s initial entry into the school.
