Non-Zoned School Requests
Overview
The Non-Zoned School Request Form is available for parents wishing to enroll their K-12* student in a school outside of their regular districted Effingham County school. Requests to change schools must be made prior to the first day of school.
Please note, you must have a Google Account to access this form. If you do not have a Google Account you will have the opportunity to create one upon opening the form. All communications and confirmation will be sent to the email provided.
*Parents of Pre-K or PSI students should contact their Pre-K Resource Coordinator or their District Program Manager for questions about school placement.
2025-2026 Requests
Requests for the 2025-2026 school year must be made during the School Choice Application process (information may be found on the Central Registration Center webpage). Once the School Choice process ends, Non-Zone Waiver hardship requests may be submitted during the summer break. Please return to this webpage for updated information.
