Military-connected students can enroll remotely if their parent or guardian is stationed in Rhode Island.
The Military Child Act defines a "military-connected student" as a dependent of a military service member or a Rhode Island National Guard member in active service. It allows these students to enroll in a Rhode Island school by remote registration if their parent or guardian presents military orders confirming they will be stationed in the state during the current or following school year. This registration does not require physical presence or proof of residency at the time of enrollment, but residency must be verified within ten days of the student's attendance.
