For your convenience, the student transfer application is done online. You can access the transfer application by clicking on the following link: https://lancasterscc.scriborder.com/. You may also access the online transfer application on the school district's webpage at www.lancastercsd.com.

On the right side of the district homepage in the "Applications" box, you will click on the "Attendance – Apply to transfer child outside attendance zone" link.

Once you are on the transfer application site, follow the prompts to fill out the entire application.

• • First set up an account on the family dashboard.

  • After your account is set up, you will then be able to complete one or more transfer applications.

  • You must fill out a separate application for each student.

  • Setting up an account will allow you to access the site at a later date to add additional applications and/or check the status of an application.

  • Once your application is complete, you will go to the payment tab and enter your payment option.

  • You can choose to pay by credit card or money order – checks or cash are not accepted for payment.

The student transfer request deadline is June 30th of each year.

Generally, you will receive notification of approval or denial on the transfer application by August 1st, after class sizes are determined.
