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

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.
