Census

Wayne Central School District Census Information

Attention families with children ages birth through five years old...

If you have children residing in your household who are five years old or younger, please go to the Wayne Census Form below to complete a brief census. This information will help forecast future enrollment.

Wayne Census Form

If you have any questions, please contact the Office of Student Services at 315-524-1006.

Thank you!

The 2020 Census counts every person living in the 50 states, District of Columbia and five U.S. territories.

The count is mandated by the Constitution and conducted by the U.S. Census Bureau, a nonpartisan government agency. The 2020 Census counts the population in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and five U.S. territories (Puerto Rico, American Samoa, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, Guam, and the U.S. Virgin Islands). Each home will receive an invitation to respond to a short questionnaire—online, by phone, or by mail.

The census provides critical data that lawmakers, business owners, teachers, and many others use to provide daily services, products, and support for you and your community. Every year, billions of dollars in federal funding go to hospitals, fire departments, schools, roads, and other resources based on census data.

Each child’s complete immunization record must be submitted from your physician or school at the time of registration. Immunization Documentation will be reviewed to confirm that vaccinations meet the appropriate number of doses and dosing intervals as required by New York State Department of Health.
