How to Register your Child for School in Cobb County, GA
Steps to enrolling a child in Cobb County Schools
Figure out which school you’re zoned to using the Bus Route Finder .
Gather your documents
Immunization Records
Certificate of Vision, Hearing, Dental, and Nutritional Screening
Proof of Birth Date (must be 5 on or before September 1 to enter Kindergarten)
Proof of Residency
Child’s Social Security Number/ Card
Other documents your child may need:
A transcript from previous school if your child is entering a grade other than kindergarten
IEP if your child has an existing one on file
Custodial documents if child’s parents do not live together
Begin the Registration Process on ParentVue
If you are new to the area, you’ll create a new account, and will have to finalize registration in person. This will likely occur toward the end of the summer, given current distancing guidelines.
If you have an existing ParentVue account from having another child already enrolled in Cobb County, you can use this account, even if you are changing schools.
Either way, you’ll want to reach out to the school to see how they’ll proceed with finalizing your registration. You can find the school’s information by going here >> Schools dropdown at top >> Select school category >> select school. Look for contact information of the admin staff and reach out by email; some schools are not taking phone calls at this time.
