Students who transfer into the School District must meet the immunization and age requirements set out for students who initially enroll in the school district.

The School District will request the student’s cumulative records from the previous school district.  If the student cannot offer proof of grade level, the Superintendent or principal will make the grade level determination.  The Superintendent or principal may require testing or other information to determine the grade level.  Students expelled or suspended from their previous school district will only be enrolled after approval of the Board.

The Superintendent or principal will determine the amount of credits to be transferred.  If the student has not previously attended an accredited school, it is within the Superintendent or principal’s discretion to accept or reject credits or grades.

The Board may deny admission if the student is not willing to provide the Board with the necessary information.
