Report.Details. ATTENTION
ALL RESIDENTS:
Please be advised that a flyer is being distributed throughout the
community regarding “Out of District Students” attending the West
Jefferson Hills Schools. Please know that the West Jefferson
Hills School District educates students who reside in West Elizabeth,
Jefferson Hills and Pleasant Hills Boroughs. These students may reside
with their parents or legal guardians and appropriate proof of
residency is required at the time of registration. The District reviews
any information regarding residency issues when it is received and
takes appropriate action when it discovers non residents attending
District schools. Such review has resulted in the withdrawal of several
students over the past several months. The documentation the District
may require is determined by the Pennsylvania Department of Education.
Anyone wishing to review the “Student Residency” Policy may access the
policy here.
