Registration / Withdrawal

Step 1: Online Registration

Families of students who are new to GCPS should begin by completing the district's online registration process. Access online registration from this link. You must complete and submit your entire online registration at the same time.

You will need the following items to complete online registration:

• Active e-mail address
• Home address and phone number
• Additional phone numbers for parents or guardians
• Up to four emergency contacts (and their phone numbers)
• Contact information for daycare or babysitter if they are the student's primary means of transportation
• Medications and health concerns
• Prior school information, including school phone number
• Discipline information
• Student's Social Security Number (optional)

Step 2: In-Person Verification

Once online registration is complete, please call the school at (770) 972-4500 for a registration appointment. We can't wait to meet you! 

You'll need to bring several documents with you to ensure your student can be registered in one visit. See the list of required documents here. Please contact us if you have any questions about the required documents.

Step 1: Obtain a Withdrawal Form

The GCPS school from which the student is withdrawing should provide the withdrawal form as well as a change of status to the family requesting the change.

Parents of students transferring from one GCPS school to another should complete the Change of Status Form, submitting it along with the withdrawal form and proper documentation to the new GCPS school.

Step 2: Schedule In-Person Verification

Once you have the completed Change of Status Form, you will need to come to school for in-person verification and submission of documents.
