2025-2026 Spring Enrollment Timeline

Tullahoma City Schools' registration process is fully online and will be completed through Skyward Family Access. Families new to the district will need to create a Skyward Family Access portal account to begin the enrollment process.

Parents or guardians with students currently enrolled in the district already have a Skyward Family Access account. If you do not know your login information, or have forgotten your login credentials, you can request access by clicking the Skyward Family Access Request link found under the Parents & Students tab on your child’s school website.

Entrance Requirements

  • Age: Tennessee law requires that a child must be 5 years of age on or before August 15 to enter kindergarten. As part of the enactment of the kindergarten entrance law, the State of Tennessee has allowed, as the director's discretion, parents of children who are turning 5 years of age between August 16 and September 30 to request a readiness assessment for early entrance to school. Tullahoma City School District utilizes a Kindergarten Readiness Assessment for children whose parents request an assessment of their child for early entrance into school. If your child is born between August 16 and September 30, and you are within the TCS zone, please contact Dr. Kristina Boone at the TCS Central Office (931-454-2600) for more information about the process and required documents. 
  • Birth Certificate: A birth certificate is required of all children entering school for the first time to verify name and age. 
  • Immunization Record: Tennessee requires proof of immunization for school attendance. A Tennessee Department of Health "Certificate of Immunization" is required before the student's first day of class. This certificate is available from the local health department or the child's physician. Students who are medically exempt from immunizations are still required to have this certificate signed by a physician and have proof of a physical examination. This does not apply to any child whose parent or guardian files with school authorities a signed, written statement that the immunization and other preventive measures conflict with the parent's or guardian's religious tenets and practices, affirmed under the penalties of perjury.
  • Required Immunizations: In order to provide the safest environment possible in the schools, the State of Tennessee requires proof of immunizations. For specific information, please visit the State's Required Immunizations website. 
  • Medical Examination: Tennessee law requires proof of physical examination for all students initially entering Tennessee schools. This includes students entering pre-K, kindergarten, and students transferring from another state. This certificate is available from the local health department or the child's physician. 

Annual Residency Verification

Proof of Residency: Each year, parents are required to show two proofs of residency in Tullahoma City Schools, such as a current utility bill, cable bill, or lease agreement with your name and current address on the document. The document must be dated within two months of submission. If you reside with another family, the person with whom you reside must fill out a Residency Affidavit notarized by a Notary Public. Along with the affidavit, that person must also present two documents as proof of residency under his/her name and a photo ID. The parent/guardian of the enrolling student must also provide one mailed document with his/her name and the address listed on the Residency Affidavit (does not have to a utility bill). 

Acceptable forms of proof of residency include: 

  • A valid driver's license, TUA bill, Elk River Public Utilities bill, house payment stub, rent receipt (with a notarized form from your landlord), an internet bill, landline phone bill, an official government bill in parent/guardian name, a government check, or SSI. 
  • Copy of signed Lease Agreement (including renewed Lease Agreements), signed valid non-contingent real estate contract or signed executed Settlement Statement with supporting documentation.
