The district has a student transfer policy that outlines the procedures for transferring students into the district. The policy requires the district to determine if it has the appropriate programs, staff, and services to fulfill the student's IEP or Section 504 Accommodation Plan. If the district determines it can provide the necessary services, a joint IEP or Section 504 conference is held with the district of residence before a final determination is made. The policy also outlines procedures for students transferring from non-accredited schools or home schools, and for students of deployed parents. Transfer students are not eligible to participate in interscholastic competition for one year, unless the transfer is from a school district not offering the grade the student is entitled to pursue. The district may cancel a transfer if the student does not comply with district rules and regulations. The policy also outlines the appeal process for denied transfers.
