- Parent/Guardian ID

We are required by the GA Dept. of Education to verify the date of birth as part of the eligibility process for enrollment.
- The Georgia Department of Education generates a GTID for all public school scholars. This is the identification number that is used for all school-related documents and reporting. If your child has never been enrolled in a Georgia public pre-k or public school we will request the social security number as this is what allows this alternate ID to be generated.
- No child will be denied enrollment or attendance to MACS for declining to provide an ss card. Families may waive the requirement to provide an ss card.

- Once your scholar has been offered a seat, you have exactly 5 business days from the date of your offer to accept/decline the seat.
- Should you neglect to accept the seat your scholar will be placed on the waitlist.
