Your query begs the question of why a parent would not want the school to have the custody order in their records. A prudent school system will require a copy of any custody order for liability reasons. The school needs to know who has legal custody so it will know who it can release the child to, who should be contacted in an emergency, who has the legal power to designate who can take the child when the custodial parent cannot and who has the legal power to sign school documents. The custodial parent should always make certain the school knows who has legal custody so the child will not be released to the non-custodial parent in a contentious situation. The child should know who can and cannot pick them up at school.

How do you get proof of custody papers?

If your matter was signed by a Judge in court, then you should have received a copy of the order from the court. If not, you can contact the court where the case was heard to request a copy. If you do not have a court order, then you have no proof of custody and only have what is called defacto custody

If my divorce decree is sealed how can I provide a copy to my childs school to verify custody?

I wouldn't. A sealed court case is done by a Judge, probably in this case to protect your child or children. The school has no RIGHT to see what a Judge has sealed. I'd call the attorney you had for the divorce and ask what kind of document you can get only regarding proof of and legal assignment of custody to you. IF you must provide the sealed document, I'd first make a COPY and take a black marker and draw a thick line through everything EXCEPT NAMES, COURT DOCKET #, DATE OF DECISION, THE CUSTODY PARAGRAPH, AND THE END OF THE DOCUMENT WITH THE SIGNATURES. (A redacted document.) After blackening all portions that are private on the COPY, then Xerox the copy so no one can try to see through the blackened sections. The financial arrangements, marital debts, division of marital property, and any marital "allegations" or "determination" about marital issues is NOT the school's business!

Is there any way to prevent a non custodial parent from taking or picking up your child from school?

The following is general since you didn't include any details.First, you should make certain the school is notified that you are the custodial parent and you should provide the school with a certified copy of the decree that awarded sole legal custody to you. If you have sole legal custody you should inform the school that the non-custodial parent is not allowed to take the child during the school day or pick the child up when school is dismissed. If the non-custodial parent persists in trying to take the child from school then you will need to address the situation in court.If the non-custodial parent is allowed to pick the child up after school pursuant to your visitation order then you must obey the order.The following is general since you didn't include any details.First, you should make certain the school is notified that you are the custodial parent and you should provide the school with a certified copy of the decree that awarded sole legal custody to you.

If the parents are divorced the school system is doing its job it should ask for a copy of the decree that states the custody arrangement.
