New Student Registration

Welcome to Mount Vernon High School!

We're excited to welcome our newest Majors!

We are a school in Fairfax County, Virginia

New students fall into one of two registration categories:

  • Students who are new to Mount Vernon High School and are not currently enrolled in another school in FCPS.
  • Students who are new to Mount Vernon High School and who are currently enrolled in FCPS, but not a rising 9th-grade student who previously attended Carl Sandburg Middle School or Walt Whitman Middle School.
    • Rising 9th-grade students who attended either of these schools do not need to enroll. The student records are automatically transferred to Mount Vernon High School.

To join Mount Vernon High School, determine if your student lives in our boundary by viewing the FCPS boundary locator

Enrolling parent, if your student does live in the Mount Vernon HS boundary and does meet one of the two categories above, please fill out the new student registration intake form below. This form will be submitted to Patricia O'Hara, our school registrar, who will be able to assist you with the new student registration process. 

New student registrations for MVHS are completed on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 2 p.m. by appointment only. Please contact Patricia O'Hara via email or phone to schedule your registration appointment. 

Please submit this new student registration intake form in English.

Please enter the day, month, and year the student was born. For example - January 12, 2002
Student Home Street Address
Is this the Student's First Year in FCPS?
If applicable, please share any additional information that you would like our school registrar to know.
Note: Submitting this form does not register the student. Submitting this form begins the new student registration process with the school. Our school registrar will contact you with the next steps to get your new student enrolled quickly and efficiently.
Elementary school Student Information Assistants are 11-month employees and not on contract from the middle of June through the middle of July, therefore there may be a delay in communication during this time period.

Student families wishing to register a student with a home language other than or in addition to English should please contact the FCPS Student Registration Welcome Center. Here professionals may assess your student's English language skill and/or educational level. These assessments can provide valuable information to the local school and support your child's instructional needs.
