If a child is transferring from another school within the Cincinnati Public School District (including charter, private or parochial), the parent/guardian will be asked to provide:

• Proof of residency
• Final report card of last school attended
• The parent/guardian must complete CPS' Student Registration Information Form.

If the student is returning from outside the Cincinnati Public School District to the same school in the same school year, the parent/guardian must provide the following documents:

• Proof of residency
• Final report card of last school attended
• Verification of kindergarten attendance, if entering first grade
• The parent/guardian should review the CPS' Student Registration Information Packet to update any incorrect information.

If a student is leaving Cincinnati Public Schools, the parent/guardian should come to the school and fill out a withdrawal form. Each school is responsible for maintaining individual student's records. Parents and guardians must keep school records up to date by:

• Providing accurate information supported by legal or required documents.
• Telling the school of changes in address and other information.

As required by the Ohio Department of Education, parents are required to notify the district of residence and the intent to home school.
