Dalton Public Schools officials are sending social workers out this week to visit families who haven’t gone through a new verification process to prove they live inside the school district.

Deputy Superintendent Don Amonett said families with students in grades three, six and nine this year are being required to go through the same proof of residency requirements they completed when they first enrolled their children in the school system. Officials said they targeted only a select few grades because they lack the staff to verify everyone’s residency.

About 200 of the roughly 2,000 students who had to prove residency — or in some cases that they were paying tuition — haven’t responded to requests, Amonett said.
