For families that receive virtual billing, please refer to the e-statement section below.  If the household is renting or is residing with a landlord who pays the utilities, please review other acceptable proofs of residency here. 
  • Utility Services must list SERVICE ADDRESS and PARENT NAME as the primary account holder.
  • Utility document must be CURRENT (Dated within 60 days of your Enrollment Center visit.
Does your household pay bills online only or receive e-Statements? 
If you receive eBills, you may choose from the options below (Option 1 is preferred, as it offers a faster and more efficient enrollment process). 
  
Option 1 (Preferred): Contact your service providers (see list below) requesting the following must be mailed to your home (not emailed).  This process will take 5-7 business days.  Please bring TWO of the following optional documents in sealed envelope:  
    • Athens Trash Service: Request a hard copy of your bill to be mailed to you @ [email protected] account number, name and address in the email)

Option 2: Make an appointment at the Enrollment Center Office.  Be sure to know your username and password for at least two of your utility service providers.  Staff will verify the authenticity of the service provider.  You will need to login to your service provider account from the PVPUSD kiosk (NOT your personal device/phone) and to print your bill from a secure browser at the Enrollment Center.  Please note that this option can potentially lengthen your enrollment process if you are chasing down username and password reset emails.  It is imperative you know your account username and password prior to your appointment.  This option is currently ONLY offered at the DISTRICT Enrollment Center office at this time.  If you are enrolling a high school student through the high school office, ONLY option 1 is applicable.
