Elementary students shall attend the school that serves the address in which they reside. When extenuating circumstances exist, the administration may transfer students to another school following the administrative procedures outlined in Policy 5120. These administrative procedures are intended to bring about uniform district-wide application of this policy while still enabling the administration to deal with specific, unique district or family conditions.
A separate request must be filled out for each child in your family. Determinations will be based on grade level class sizes so all children of the same family may not be approved.
Current School Year
Families requesting a transfer to a school outside of their designated school for the CURRENT school year due to a change in residence shall fill out the form that is found here. The request must start with this form, which is routed to the necessary administrators within the district based on the current elementary school selected and the requested elementary school selected. If the transfer is approved, transportation of the student to and from school is the responsibility of the parents/guardians. If transportation is not able to be consistently provided as required, the request may be denied or revoked. The approved request applies only for the remainder of the current school year. The student will attend the designated school that serves their address the year after the exception. Parents/Guardians will receive written notification (in the form of an email) of approval or denial of their request within 5 business days. If the transfer is denied, the parents/guardians may appeal the decision to the Director of Pupil Services. The link to the appeal form will be included in the response email. The appeal must be completed within 10 days.
Following School Year
Families requesting to transfer to a school outside of their designated school for the FOLLOWING school year shall use the same procedure as listed above, however, must complete the request form between March 1st and May 1st. The link for that request will be live on March 1st on this webpage. Families will be notified by June 1 regarding approval or denial of request.
