Transfers can only be approved by Student Services once available space has been verified by school staff.   

During the month of July, schools are closed and Student Services cannot approve transfers until school staff is available to verify space availability. 

Transfers for students with IEPs can only be approved once the Special Education Department has verified that there is space available in a program that can provide services aligned to the offer of FAPE. 

Admission to Magnet Schools is only available through the annual Magnet School lottery process.

Transfer requests from students with poor behavioral or attendance histories may be denied.
