Transfer Window

The student transfer window generally opens in early February and closes the Friday before spring break.

Transfer Review Process

A committee of district personnel will review each transfer request individually. Your child's personal circumstances are taken into consideration in determining the outcome of your request.

Criteria for Transfers and Revocations

Once we receive a transfer application for an initial transfer request, or when considering revoking a student’s transfer, the Superintendent (or a designee) will consider the following:

• Enrollment at sending and receiving schools;
• Dependability of parent transportation;
• Number of requests in a school year;
• Academic history;
• Attendance history, including late arrivals and pickups;
• Discipline history;
• Previous attendance as a transfer student;
• Participation in extracurricular activities;
• Accuracy of the information submitted;
• Compliance with timelines established in campus handbooks; and
• Other criteria as noted on the transfer application.

Transportation
If a student transfers to participate in a middle school magnet program, the District will provide transportation. If the transfer occurs for other reasons, the student’s parent or guardian will be responsible for providing transportation to and from school.

Appeal Process

Appeals should be made in writing to the Superintendent’s designee within ten days of receiving a “notice of denial or revocation.” A transfer appeal committee will review all appeals.
