Enroll in Union County Public Schools
-
Children need to be five years old by August 31 in order to begin kindergarten in that school year. The state mandates that children between the ages of seven and 16 attend public or private school.
Your child is considered a “new student” if they never attended Union County Public Schools or previously attended a school within the district and want to re-enroll. Students are eligible to attend school within the district and are assigned to home schools based on the domicile of the student’s parent.
Steps to Enroll
-
Step 1: Determine the zoned home school based on the Union County address (Edulog)
Parents will be required to contact the school in the attendance district where the parents reside to secure the school assignment. School assignments may also be found using the Edulog School Assignment Finder. Edulog is the authoritative source to determine school assignment. If you encounter problems while using Edulog, or are unable to find the school to which your student is assigned, please email edulog@ucps.k12.nc.us.
