School Records

A parent or legal guardian enrolling a student can submit school records when entering the Rochester City School District. The Office of Student Registration will contact your child's previously attended school to obtain your child's transcript and/or last report card, as well as any Individual Education Plan (IEP), if applicable. Providing school records is not required to register, but it will expedite your child's enrollment.

Some examples of school records include:

Official transcripts or other school records of previous school(s) attended

Most recent report card

Most recent Individual Education Plan (IEP) if your child has been receiving Special Education Services

More information and common examples of acceptable documents that are required to register a child within the Rochester City School District are available in our RCSD Student Registration Requirement Guide.
