Request to Attend a School Other Than the Student's Home School

School regulations require the completion of a written request before consideration is given to assign a student to an attendance area other than the student’s home school. Parent/Guardian(s) submitting this form understand that the school will not be responsible for transportation if this request is approved, this includes transportation for special education students. Transfer requests should be considered permanent building assignments when approved. The following criteria will guide decisions. Consideration is given to requests that alleviate severe family hardships (participation in sports, band or other specific programs are not considered hardships) or balance enrollment. Forms must be submitted to the Bellevue Public Schools by February 15 prior to the year of transfer. Forms submitted after February 15 will not be considered until after July 1.
