Weston Public Schools provide education to pre-school students and kindergarten through twelfth grade students in two elementary schools, one middle school, and one high school.
Non-Resident Students
All non-resident students interested in attending Weston Public Schools must complete the Non-Resident Tuition Student Application. If your application is approved, you may then begin the process of registering your child.
Arrangements for foreign students must be made through the Office of the Superintendent of Schools prior to registration.
Residency Requirements
Permanent residency (physical presence with an intention to remain) in the Town of Weston is the primary requirement for enrollment in the Weston Public Schools. Living with a Weston resident for the purpose of attending Weston schools is forbidden under Connecticut law and Weston Board of Education policy.
Residency Verification
When registering a child in Weston Public Schools, families must be prepared to prove residency by providing documentation:
Home Ownership in Weston
Many times families would like their children to attend school in Weston prior to the closing on their new Weston property. This is allowed under certain circumstances, and with certain stipulations.
Future residents must provide a contract of purchase with closing date. This contract or agreement must be signed and dated by both parties. In addition, an Affidavit - Moving to Weston within Sixty Days must also be submitted. Once you close on your home in Weston you are required to provide the documentation referenced in Residency Verification - Home Ownership.
Occasionally circumstances arise which require a living arrangement different from those outlined above. Connecticut students are entitled to attend public school in the district in which they reside (CGS § 10-220). Children living with people other than their parents may attend school in the district where they currently live, so long as (1) it is the intention of the caregivers, whether relatives or nonrelatives, and of the child or his parents or guardian that the residence will be permanent; (2) such residence is provided without pay; and (3) such residence is not for the sole purpose of giving the child free school privileges in the district.
When a change in residence occurs, your child's school office must be notified immediately. Residency documentation must be updated in order for the student to remain in school.
Registration Process
Registration for residents new to Weston is conducted throughout the year.
Before you begins this process, please make sure you have all the necessary documentation needed; residency verification documents listed above, as well as the documentation required by each school.
Your child is not registered until all forms are complete and submitted. This includes residency verification documentation.
** Connecticut State Law forbids any child from beginning school without updated health records and immunizations
