STUDENT TRANSFER REQUESTS

Inter District Transfer Policy:
The District must meet it's obligation to serve resident students before using it's resources to serve new students who transfer into the District through an inter-district transfer agreement. The Governing Board of this District supports providing out-of District students with an in-District placement where possible. In order to accomplish this, the District must determine the limitations on capacity for purposes of inter-district transfers exist to allow for in-district residents.

Classes at the relevant grade level may be deemed to be full for the purposes of inter-district transfer when TK classes reach 17:1, when K-3rd classes reach 21:1, when 4th-6th grade classes reach 28:1 and when 7th-8th grade classes reach 30:1.

For special day class ("SDC") students, in addition to considerations of grade level and district capacity: A Mild-to-Moderate SDC may be deemed full for purposes of inter-district transfers when the student:teacher ratio exceeds 8:1. A Moderate-to-Severe SDC may be deemed full for purposes of inter-district transfers when the student:teacher ratio exceeds 8:1.
