Enrollment Procedure

WELCOME TO DRAGON COUNTRY!

To attend Tyro Middle School, you and your student must live in the geographical boundaries of the West Davidson area.

Proof of custody and residency is required at enrollment. 
The school district does not accept any out-of-district students, even on a tuition basis.

The checklist below will guide you as you prepare to enroll your student at Tyro Middle School. We encourage you to stop by the school at 2946 Michael Rd, Lexington NC in order to pick up a packet of information you will need for your registration appointment.  You MUST have this information completed (in addition to any required documents) when you come in for your appointment. If your information is not completed or you do not have the documents you need, you will be rescheduled. If you are unable to come by and pick up an application packet, you may complete an application at home and report to your appointment approximately 20 minutes early so that you can complete the remaining enrollment items prior to your appointment.

Please call 336-853-7795 and set up a registration appointment with your student's counselor to register for the 2017-2018 school year! Registration appointments are required during the summer months and are limited to a few days each month. Because we schedule multiple families on a few select days, we are must stay on schedule (both as a courtesy to those who report on time and so that we can complete the enrollments of everyone scheduled on a given day). IF YOU ARE MORE THAN 15 MINUTES LATE FOR YOUR APPOINTMENT OR IF YOU REPORT TO YOUR APPOINTMENT WITHOUT THE REQUIRED DOCUMENTS AND COMPLETED PAPERWORK, YOU WILL BE RESCHEDULED. Thank you for your understanding.
