If parents are divorced: The parent with legal custody must present a certified copy of the court order awarding legal custody. If a custody change is pending, the non-custodial parent must present a dated, time-stamped copy of the court filing, showing the motion for the change of custody. The non-custodial parent is then given 60 days to present a certified copy of the final decree.
For enrollment, we do require a copy of the child's birth certificate. If born in Ohio, you can get one printed at the Lorain County Public Health Department for $25. You can visit their website at LorainCountyHealth.com or visit the office at 9880 S. Murray Ridge Road in Elyria between the hours of 8 AM and 4 PM Monday through Friday.
The residency information supplied is true and accurate, and is not fabricated to circumvent the attendance laws of the State of Ohio or the policies of the North Ridgeville School Board of Education requiring legal residency to attend the North Ridgeville Schools.
