Posted Aug 6, 2007: Affidavit of Residence required for 2007-2008 
Starting this school year, parents/guardians of all students must submit a notarized Affidavit of Residence form certifying that the family resides in Fulton County. This applies to both current and new students and will be required annually.  The purpose of the Affidavit is to make sure that only students who reside in Fulton County attend Fulton County schools. Because of Fulton’s reputation as one of the best school systems in Georgia, some families living outside of Fulton attendance zones have found creative ways to enroll their children in Fulton schools. These families take advantage of Fulton’s outstanding programs and services, yet do not pay the taxes used to fund schools. The notarized Affidavit legally verifies that all children reside in their correct school attendance zone, or have an approved transfer.   Two forms of documentation are needed satisfy proof of residency requirements. Acceptable Documentation: Copy of home mortgage payment book Current bank statement Copy of home contract Current utility bill (gas, electric, or water) Current paycheck stub Apartment lease showing name of lessee Receipt to have utilities connected Homeowner's/Renter's insurance registration card Parent are encouraged to have the Affidavit notarized and submitted to school during the first week of classes. However, a lenience period of up to 30 calendar days is granted before the system begins to investigate any families failing to submit their forms.    Notaries often can be found at banks, law offices, copy centers, insurance companies, courts, and in many other government buildings. Each Fulton County school also has at least one notary on staff.   Note: The documents needed for verification DO NOT need to be attached to the affidavit form and submitted to the school. Only the Affidavit form itself, once notarized, should be submitted. Click here for the Affidavit of Residence form (PDF). Posted Jul 23, 2007: Beginning-of-the year letter from the principal for new and returning students. Student Letter 2007-2008 (PDF) Posted Jul 17, 2007: We have applied again this year for the Kroger Earning Plus Learning Educational Incentive Program. Parent letters will be going home with students in the parent packets the first days of school. Parents take this letter to Kroger (one time only) and have it scanned when they have their Kroger card scanned. This will automatically have Kroger donate a portion of their purchases for the next year directly to Lake Windward. It's so easy!! They can then give the letter to someone else who can also do the same. You can check the website www.krogerearningpluslearning.com for more information. We need parent participation.
