Attendance Areas
The School District is divided into school attendance areas. The Superintendent shall review the boundary lines annually and recommend any changes to the Board of Education. The Superintendent or designee shall maintain a map of the District showing current school attendance areas. Students living in a given school attendance area will be assigned to that school. Homeless children shall be assigned according to Board policy 6:140, Education of Homeless Children.
Transfers within the District
A student’s parent(s)/guardian(s) may request the student be transferred to a District school other than the one to which the student was assigned. Requests should be directed to the Home Building Principal. The Home Building Principal will then forward his or her recommendation to the Superintendent, who, at his or her sole discretion, may grant the request when the parent(s)/guardian(s) demonstrate that the student could be better accommodated by the education program at another school, provided space is available. Students who are granted a transfer within the District shall be responsible for their own transportation. The provisions in this section have no applicability to transfers mandated by Title I and covered in Board policy 6:15, School Accountability.
