Updated Transfer Request Information for 2024-25

The general transfer window for the fall semester is closed. Per District policy FDB adopted June 2023, only hardship transfers will be accepted starting in the spring of 2024. Below is part of the policy that pertains to hardship transfers:

Students seeking to submit a request to a new school within the same school year may apply for a hardship request and, if approved, shall be permitted to move at the beginning of the subsequent semester unless otherwise agreed upon by the sending and receiving school. Families may apply for a hardship request under the following categories:

• Childcare: If a family has a change in circumstance that impacts their access to necessary childcare.

• Safety: Families with a documented safety issue at a school

• Change to Residential Address: If a family moves and their attendance zone has changed, the student may remain in their school through the end of the year or move to their new zoned school.

• Programmatic/Academic: If a family determines that the programmatic or academic setting of their child's current requested school is not a good fit.

Hardship transfer requests shall be reviewed on a first-come, first-served basis and may be approved or denied based on the information provided at the time of the request. Barring exigent circumstances, the transfer shall be approved for the upcoming semester. If the circumstances warrant an immediate transfer, the Office of Student Services will work with the family, the sending, and the receiving school to determine the date of transfer.
