School Transfers

The Governing Board desires to provide enrollment options that meet the diverse needs and interests of district students and parents/guardians, while also balancing enrollment in order to maximize the efficient use of district facilities. The district recently changed Board Policy 5116.1 and Administrative Regulation 5116.1 to implement a "Priority Transfer Window". This change will allow our district to effectively staff schools and create balanced classroom sizes.

2024/2025 INTRA will not be available until 10/1/24
