Oregon law allows students to attend school where their parents reside. To comply with Oregon State law (ORS 339.133), regarding school attendance boundaries and to assure better emergency contact information for your student, the verification of residency process is REQUIRED for the following students:

• Students new to Ashland Schools (including InterDistrict Transfers )

• Students starting or moving to a new school in grades, K, 6 and 9

• Students that have incomplete residency verification

• Students transferring from one elementary or K-8 school to another

• Students with a change of address during the school year

Two original documents (one from each category) must be provided:

Document #1 Category: Home Owner or Rental document. Could include escrow papers, deed, property tax bill, or rental/lease agreement. Rental agreements must be signed by both parties and include your name and address, and must also be accompanied by two consecutive rental payment receipts (within 60 days for new rentals).

Document #2 Category: Current utility bill (water, gas, power, cable, etc.), financial document (bank statement, pay stub, etc.), Insurance document (car, home, or health), or Government document (Social Security, WIC, Oregon Health Plan, or unemployment insurance). Please note that we are not able to accept telephone bills or driver's licenses as proof of residency. Additionally, the documents selected must contain both your name and your physical address.
