Charlotte Mecklenburg Handbooks, Forms, and Notices

Again this year, the Student Rights and Responsibilities Handbook, all CMS required forms, and the Parent-Student Handbook will only be available online. The move to online forms will save the district printing, processing and shipping costs. It also aligns with CMS' efforts to conserve resources and limit paper use.

Click here to access all the back to school forms you will need from CMS. Forms at this link include the Student Rights and Responsibilities Handbook (which is also known as the Student Code of Conduct), the Parent-Student Handbook, and the CMS Forms and Notices Handbook.
