Current Student – Information Update/Verification Process

Parents/Guardians will complete this process for each child in their household who is a current student in HCS plus any additional children in their household who need to register/enroll no matter the grade in which they are starting including kindergarten. 

Each year, current families in Henry County Schools are required to update and/or verify important information and documents as a part of the annual process for starting the new school year. The important documents include updating/verifying such information as contact information, transportation options, meal benefits, handbook acknowledgements, and more. The once large stack of paperwork that awaited you at Open House or the first day of school is now completed in this easy-to-use digital format.

To complete this important process in order to #BeReadyDayOne, follow these steps:

1. Open the Parent Portal (CLICK HERE).

2. Click the “More” option along the left-hand side of the page.

3. Select “Information Update/Verification”.

4. Choose “Current Student Information Update/Verification”.

5. Select “Begin Update”.

6. You must repeat the steps for each child in your household who is currently enrolled in HCS.

7. If you have children currently enrolled in HCS but need to register additional children for the first time, select Add Another Student.

Through this process you will update/verify the following information:

a. Household Information – address and phone numbers

b. Parent/Guardian Information – work and cell phone numbers, email addresses

c. Student Information – demographic, health/medication information, and transportation selection options

d. Emergency Contact Information – addresses and phone numbers
