School Enrollment Without Guardianship

Summary

In Pennsylvania, enrolling a child in school without being the primary guardian typically requires the child to reside with you full-time. You may need to provide a notarized affidavit, proof of residency, and details about the care and support you provide. Exceptions exist if you are providing care and support or if the child lives with you for personal reasons. Consult the school district for specific documentation requirements.
