Stewart Middle School

Dear parents:

We are requiring students to verify their residency status for this school year. The reason for this procedure is because there have been students attempting to register for Douglas County Schools who do not reside in our district. Forty-two percent (42%) of the funds generated to educate students are from local taxes. For each student attending our schools that does not reside in Douglas County, the school system loses $4,214.

 At this time it is requested each student bring in verifications of their residency in the form of:

         Current utility bill

and one of the following:

         Property tax statement

         Mortgage statement
