Questions and Answers Regarding Residency
* Does New Hampshire law provide a definition of residency for school attendance
purposes?
Yes, RSA 193:12 defines legal resident.
* Who decides residency issues?
The Superintendent decides residency issues. If parents reside in two separate school
districts, the Superintendent shall consult with the Superintendent of the other school
district. Local policy should guide a district in determining the role of the local board
in decisions making regarding residency.
* May parent(s) appeal the residency decision of the Superintendent/School Board?
Yes. If the dispute involves two superintendents, the issue may be referred to the
Commissioner of Education. If the dispute is related to the district of liability for the
cost of special education and related services, or if the dispute is between the
superintendent/school board and parent(s), the parents(s) may appeal to the State Board of
Education.
* If in a divorce decree the court assigns a school district which is not the
legal residence of a child, should the district comply?
Probably, but the Superintendent should seek the advice of legal counsel.
* If a non-resident parent has physical custody of a child, may the parents seek a
change in custody through guardianship, rather than through a divorce proceeding.
Yes.
* Once guardianship papers are filed in Probate Court, how long should a district
wait for the courts to act?
A reasonable expectation for Probate Court action is between 45 and 60 days.
* Does RSA 193:12 apply to attendance areas (neighborhood schools) within a school
district?
No, but school districts may adopt a policy establishing neighborhood school geographic
boundaries and may want to establish a procedure for granting an exemption.
* RSA 193:12 discusses the legal residence of a minor. What is a minor under this
law, and what is a district's responsibility to educate a child over the age of 18?
For purposes of RSA 169-B, Delinquent Children, a minor means a person under the age of
17; RSA 21:44, Age of Majority: Adults, refers to adults as persons who have attained the
age of 18 years. However, it is the duty of a school district to provide an education for
all children who reside in the district until a child has aquired a high school diploma or
has reached age 21.
* If a child is 18 years of age or older and does not live with either parent,
where does the child attend school?
A child 18 years of age or older may declare his/her residency and is entitled to attend a
school in the district in which he/she resides.
* If a parent places a child with a friend or relative while being out-of-state or
out-of-country, may the child attend school in the district in which the friend or
relative resides?
Yes, if there is an intention of the parent(s) to return to a principal dwelling in the
school district. If parent(s) are renting or leasing an apartment and the lease is
terminated, the child may not attend school in that district; however if the parent(s)
sublet the apartment the child may attend school in the district in which the friend or
relative resides.
* Should a school district have an admission and attendance of non-resident pupils
policy?
Yes. Under state law such policy is required. This policy should minimize disputes of
interpretation.
* Is transportation for a non-resident child required?
Typically a school district is not responsible for transportation outside its geographic
boundaries, however RSA 189:6 does establish certain transportation requirements.
* If a child is a child of homeless parents and they reside in a school district,
is the school district responsible for educating the homeless child?
If the parent(s) and/or child lives in a shelter within the school district, the child is
entitled to an education in the district. If a parent(s) and/or child lives in a motel or
elsewhere on a temporary basis and formerly lived in another school district, either
school district may be required to provide an education in accordance with the McKinney
Act. (For additional information contact Lynda Thistle-Elliott, NH Department of
Education, 271-3840)
* If the Department of Health and Human Services places a child with a relative or
friend where does the child attend school?
The child is entitled to attend school in the district in which the friend or relative
resides.
* If the Department of Health and Human Services places the child with a friend of
relative and the child is receiving special education and related services, which school
district is responsible for the cost of special education and related services?
If a parent(s) does not have legal custody, the school district in which the child resided
prior to being placed by the Department is the liable district. If a parent(s) retains
legal custodfy, the liable school district is the district in which the parent(s) reside.
The liability of a school district is either (1) the average cost per child of the
receiving district or (2) the actual prorated cost of special education & related
services.
* If a child placed by the Department of Health and Human Services or a court
attends school in the district and is not receiving special education and related services
may a school district seek reimbursement from the school district in which the child
resided prior to being placed by the Department or the court?
No.
* If a child reaches the age of 17 and remains in a Department of Health and Human
Services or court-ordered placement who is financially liable?
The legally liable school district is the one in which the child resided prior to being
placed by the Department of Health and Human Services or the court.
