Annual Residency Verification

District 219 is committed to protecting taxpayer dollars through our annual residency process.

District 219 uses a tool called the CLEAR Batch system to review public records and verify your residency. All households will be reviewed using this system. In some cases, the CLEAR Batch system will locate adequate documentation to verify your residency for the 2024-2025 school year, and you will receive an email in mid-June to indicate that you do not need to verify your student’s residency.

In other cases, the CLEAR Batch system may identify insufficiencies or inconsistencies in public records. In addition, a group of households will be selected at random, regardless of the results of the CLEAR Batch system search, to provide documentation to verify their residency. People who fall into one of these categories will receive an email in mid-June to indicate that you will need to provide documentation to verify your student’s residency. Online residency verification will begin June 30. District staff will also be available in person to assist starting on July 2 until the start of the school year.

Fee waiver forms and health forms (freshmen & seniors) can also be uploaded and processed online.  District staff are also available to assist with these forms.
