Transition Planning for Military Families

Enrolling your child into our school system shouldn't be the toughest part of your transition to our area! Let us help you with a step-by-step guide!

Getting Started

If you are transitioning military service member with school-age children, every address in our school district is served by one residentially zoned elementary school, one residentially zoned middle school, and one residentially zoned high school.

However, if you are interested in enrolling your student in North Miami Beach SHS, reach out to Mrs. Monise Jean in our Student Services Office (School Registrar Office) at (305) 949-8381 or monisejean@dadeschools.net

Please consider the following questions:

Does Miami-Dade County Public Schools have a record of your child in its system?
Do you have all the necessary documentation to officially register your child for school?

To begin, you may need to complete an “online enrollment application" if your child has never received public school services in Miami-Dade County Public Schools. If your child already exists in our school district's student information system, please DO NOT create an additional record. However, if your child does not already exist in our system, proceed to the online enrollment application to begin the process.

Items you'll need to help you create a simple record of your child in the online enrollment application system are:

Emergency Contact Information
Health Insurance Information
Medical Information

Documents you'll need to have with you to register at the school include:

Proof of Address (any one of these will suffice)

A current utility bill—either water, electricity, or gas (These are the most used proofs of residence.)
A copy of a signed lease or housing agreement. (If your family is staying with another family and consequently does not have proof of address, use the address verification form and attach one of the
aforementioned proofs of residence to the notarized address verification form.)
If you reside in temporary housing (such as the Navy Lodge, etc.), please bring a copy of the most recent
bill/invoice/receipt.
Recent Physical (within the past 12 months).
Current immunization records.
Verification of Age (most commonly, an authorized copy of the child’s official birth certificate).
Social Security Number(if applicable).
State- or Government-Issued Photo ID of the parent/guardian enrolling the child.
