The Summer Registration Hubs will be open at the following locations:
- John Lewis Elementary School: June 9-12 and July 21-24 from 8:00 AM to 3:30 PM.
Saturday, June 14, 2025, 9:00am – 1:00pm. - Martin Luther King High School: June 9-12 and July 21-24 from 8:00 AM to 3:30 PM.
Saturday, June 14, 2025, 9:00am – 1:00pm. - McNair Middle School: June 23-26 and July 28-31 from 8:00 AM to 3:30 PM.
- Smoke Rise Elementary School: June 23-26 and July 28-31 from 8:00 AM to 3:30 PM.
This year, all families, new and returning, will be required to go through our residential verification system. Formerly, the residency verification was done manually at each local school. However, we are transitioning to a system called CLEAR to increase proficiency and streamline expectations district-wide. The CLEAR process verifies parent information that has been submitted by families during the online registration and annual verification processes. More information on this software can be found by clicking here.
DeKalb County School District will use an objective and unbiased methodology that leverages CLEAR background check services to assist with the determination of residency within the district’s boundaries. The CLEAR background check process only uses parents’ names and home addresses as a first step in accessing public records to better assist in the verification of residency for all families attempting to register students in the DeKalb County School District.
Families who do not meet the CLEAR established criteria or have been designated for administrative review will be notified in writing prior to July 1, 2025. Within the notification, they will be informed of all requirements necessary to complete residency verification prior to the first day of school, August 4, 2025.
If you have any questions, please contact us at registration@dekalbschoolsga.org.
