Someone will follow up in the near future with further details. Thank you in advance for your help with making this possible for our Eagle Scholars. 

    TRANSITIONAL REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS

    Administrative Procedure 5111, Registration and Withdrawal of Students, requires updated proof of residence when your child enters a different school for any reason.  The residency requirement is established by State law (COMAR) and further clarified by local Board of Education policy and administrative procedures. A recent review of your child(ren) student record determined than an updated Student Registration and proof of residence has not been completed online.  Please visit https://pgcpsmdc.scriborder.com/ select Transitional Enrollment and upload updated proof of residence.
