*Refusal to Provide a Social Security Number for Student Identification

Georgia law (20-2-0150) requires public school authorities to request from parents and guardians the Social Security number for students being enrolled in school. The Social Security number is to be incorporated into the official school record for the student. No student will be denied enrollment in a public school for declining to provide his or her Social Security number or for declining to apply for such a number. If a parent will not provide the student’s SSN, a generic SSN is assigned from our pool of state-assigned SSN. HOPE Scholarship Local Education Agencies (LEA) submit student transcript data to the Georgia Student Finance Commission (GSFC) beginning when the student is in 9th grade. Student transcripts submitted without SSN are not eligible to receive HOPE Scholarship.

Students who are 9th grade eligible may enroll in Mountain Education Charter High School (MECHS).

To register, credit recovery students need:

*a Counselor Recommendation Form completed by the student's regular high school

*social security number

Students who are jointly enrolled with a regular day school program will pay the following tuition costs:
