NEW STUDENT REQUIREMENTS (ENGLISH)

New students are those students who have never been in a Hamblen County School previously or those students who have left the district and did not complete the 2019-2020 school year at a Hamblen County School (enrolled through May 22, 2020).

All new Hamblen County School students must visit their zoned school to begin the registration process.

What do I bring to the school for enrollment?

Once at the school, the estimated time to complete the enrollment process is about 30 minutes per student who is being registered, if you have all available information ready when you begin the process. You will create an online enrollment account before you begin. 

The following is a list of information you will need to gather prior to arriving at the zoned school:
