Welcome to Whitman-Hanson School district!


           NEW STUDENT REGISTRATION

We would like to welcome you to our school district. In order to help your son or daughter enroll as quickly as possible,
we have put together the following list of information you will need to provide to us PRIOR to your son or daughter being
officially enrolled as a student in the Whitman-Hanson School District.


                                         ENROLLMENT AND PROOF OF RESIDENCY


Under MGL, Chapter 76, Section 5, every person “shall have the right to attend the public school of the town where
she/he actually resides.” The following procedures will be followed in order to verify a student’s residency:
Before any student is enrolled in the Whitman-Hanson Regional School District, the student’s parent or legal
guardian* must prove legal residence in the towns of Whitman or Hanson
. Children whose primary residence is
outside of Whitman or Hanson are not eligible to attend the Whitman-Hanson Regional School District. Residency means
the domicile where a child spends the majority of her/his time. The standard Whitman-Hanson uses is simple: The law is
very clear that the determination for residency lies in the establishment of “domicile” – where the student resides, as
determined by the establishment of where the center of her/his domestic, social and civic life is, and this is where one is to
attend school. This standard must be the first step met before a family seeks to demonstrate the residency of the child.


All applicants must submit at least 
three proofs of residency.


The documents must be pre-printed with the name and address of the student’s parent or guardian. * When registering a
student for Whitman-Hanson Public Schools, the district Registrar will confirm residency. These documents also will be
required for any change of address.

All applicants must submit at least one document from each of the following columns:
