• Transfers for Spring 2019 will be accepted December 1-15.

    Transfers are approved on a first-come first serve basis to available schools and grade levels. Transfer limits apply and when limits are reached grade levels and campuses are closed to transfers. Transfers requested from June 15 to the first day of class will be considered for children of employees, children who move during the summer, children new to the district, and for students who wish to enroll in a Board approved magnet course not offered at their home school. Transfers are considered before school begins and at mid-term.  We do not allow transfers from one campus to another during the academic semesters.

    A non-refundable transfer application fee of $50.00 (cash or credit only) is due at the time of application.  Fees are waived for students who provide a copy of their letter issued by the Food and Nutritional Services confirming qualification for the Free or Reduced Lunch Program.  Transfers or reversal transfer requests to return to the home campus are not granted during semesters.  Once approved, the transfer continues to be in effect until the student completes the grade levels on that campus. However, approval of a transfer does not guarantee future transfer approval to the next feeder school. You must reapply for a transfer to a new campus.  Younger siblings are not guaranteed approval to the same campus and will be evaluated at the time of their request.

    Transfers may be revoked by the school principal if disciplinary or attendance rules are violated, if there is a lack of academic progress, or if there is a lack of parental cooperation at the new campus. The District does not provide bus transportation for transfer students. Transfer students in grades 9-12 generally forfeit eligibility to participate in varsity athletics for one year from the date of first attending on the new campus.

    Transfer requests are approved by the Manager of Student Administrative Services.
