Welcome to the Maple Heights City School District. Our school district has a Centralized Enrollment Office that assists families and students with the following: 

• Registration/Enrollment in the district

• Address Changes 

• Student Custodial and Legal Changes

• Withdrawal Process 

• Mckinney Vento  - Click here for additional information if you are experiencing homelessness (see below):

  • Federal law defines students experiencing homelessness as children or youth lacking a fixed, regular, and adequate nighttime residence. 

  This includes:  

  1. Individuals who have lost their own home, suffering financial hardship or similar reasons; 

  2. Individuals who are sharing the housing of others; 

  3. Individuals who are living in hotels or motels or in campgrounds or trailer parks that are not viewed as year-round homes because they do not have accommodations, such as heat or running water; 

  4. Individuals who are living in emergency shelters or who have been abandoned in hospitals

  5. Individuals who are living in cars, parks, or public spaces. 

Please contact Mark Curtis at mark.curtis@mapleschools.com or 614-587-6100 ext. 3700 if you meet the above criteria for Mckinney Vento.

CHANGES IN RESIDENCY/CUSTODY/CONTACT INFORMATION

You have a continuing duty to immediately inform the District of any changes of residence (including proof as required) and/or standing as to a legal custody (including the most recent court documents).

Parents are also required to notify the school office immediately of any changes in current home, work, emergency, and/or cell phone numbers. Updates can be done as needed throughout the school year as needed.  Additionally, at the start of each new school year, parents/guardians will be required to verify and/or update as necessary the contact information that we have on file for each of their students by logging into their FinalForms account.

WITHDRAWALS
If you are leaving Maple Heights City Schools to go to another school district, you will need to withdraw your child(ren) from our enrollment office.  Withdrawal forms will be in the lobby outside of the enrollment office to be completed.  Once complete, please press the buzzer to be let in to submit your form.  We are only allowing 1 person per family in the office to complete this process.  If at all possible, please do not bring children for these purposes.  At that time, you will be given a copy of the withdrawal form and school records to take to your child's new school.  You will need a photo ID.
