Student Transfer Request
Transfer Applications (in-district and out-of-district) must be submitted online through Skyward Family Access by August 1, 2024. Transfer Applications can only be accepted from a student's legal parent or guardian. A nonresident student shall not be permitted to attend district schools except for reasons outlined in the Board Policy FDA (Local) updated May 6, 2024.

All Student Transfer requests (in-district and out-of-district) will be reviewed starting in July. Applications submitted after the August 1, 2024, deadline may not be considered for final determination.
Transfers shall be granted for one regular school year. A new transfer request must be submitted each school year. The parent or guardian will be notified of the decision via the email you provide in Skyward.
In approving transfers, the superintendent or designee shall consider the availability of space and instructional staff and the student's disciplinary history and attendance records. The superintendent or designee may revoke a transfer at any time for reasons that include but are not limited to discipline issues, excessive tardies, late/early pickups, attendance issues, falsification of enrollment or application information, and removal from the program from which the transfer was approved.
Transportation will NOT be provided for students approved for a transfer.
