For the current school year, parents or legal guardians can submit their requests on an ongoing basis.  If a parent or legal guardian submits an interdistrict transfer request for the current school year, the District shall notify the parent or legal guardian of its decision within 30 calendar days from the date the request was received.  (Ed. Code, § 46600.2(a)(5)(a).)

For a future school year, parents or legal guardians can submit their requests on an ongoing basis.  If a parent or legal guardian submits an interdistrict transfer request for a future school year, the District shall notify the parent or legal guardian of its decision as soon as possible, but no later than 14 calendar days after the commencement of instruction in the school district for which the interdistrict transfer is sought.  (Ed.

If a parent or legal guardian does not meet any of the timelines established by the school district, their interdistrict transfer request shall be deemed as an abandonment of the request.  (Ed. Code, § 46600.2(a)(4).)

 The District may approve an interdistrict transfer request for any of the following reasons: (a) A student whose parent or legal guardian is assigned to that school as their primary place of employment.  (Ed. Code, § 35160.5(b)(3)(B)); (b) A student who finished tenth grade so that the student can finish the remaining years of their high school career within the same school district.  (Ed. Code, § 46600); (c) When the student has been determined by staff of either the district of residence or district of proposed attendance to be a victim of an act of bullying as defined in Education Code 48900(r), the student shall be given priority for interdistrict attendance under any existing interdistrict attendance agreement or, in the absence of an agreement, shall be given consideration for the creation of a new permit.  (Ed. Code, § 46600); (c) To meet the child care needs of the student.  Such a student may be allowed to continue to attend district schools only as long as he/she continues to use a child care provider within district boundaries; (d) To meet the student's special mental or physical health needs as certified by a physician, school psychologist, or other appropriate school personnel; (e) When the student has a sibling attending school in the receiving district, to avoid splitting the family's attendance.  (Ed. Code, § 35160.5(b)(3)(B)); (f) Students who are children of active duty military parents or legal guardians.  (Ed. Code, § 46600, subd. (d)(1)); (g) To allow the student to complete a school year when his/her parent or legal guardian have moved out of the district during that year; (h) To allow the student to remain with a class graduating that year from an elementary, middle, or senior high school; (i) To allow a high school senior to attend the same school he/she attended as a junior, even if his/her family moved out of the district during the junior year; (j) When the parent or legal guardian provides written evidence that the family will be moving into the district in the immediate future and would like the student to start the year in the district; (k) When the student will be living out of the district for one year or less; (k) When recommended by the school attendance review board or by county child welfare, probation, or social service agency staff in documented cases of serious home or community problems which make it inadvisable for the student to attend the school of residence; (l) When there is valid interest in a particular educational program not offered in the district of residence; (m) To provide a change in school environment for reasons of personal and social adjustment.

The District may deny an interdistrict transfer request for any of the following reasons: (a) Insufficient space in existing programs; (b) The need to create a new program or new services to address the student’s needs.  (Ed. Code, § 48303(a)); (c) Fraud on a student’s interdistrict transfer application; (d) unsatisfactory academics, attendance, or behavior.   

Once a student is admitted through an interdistrict transfer, the student shall not have to reapply, unless the District includes such a provision in the interdistrict transfer agreement.  (Ed. Code, § 46600(a)(1) & (2).) 

Additionally, while districts may require students to reapply for an interdistrict transfer each school year, traditional interdistrict transfers cannot be revoked or rescinded for current 11th or 12th grade students and cannot be rescinded after June 30 following a student’s 10th grade year.  (Ed. Code, §§ 46601, 46600(a)(1), (2), & (4).)

A parent or legal guardian may appeal to the governing County Board of Education the denial within thirty (30) calendar days of the District’s denial.  (Ed. Code, § 46601.)  During a pending appeal, the proposed district of enrollment may provisionally admit the student, for a period of no more than two school months.  (Ed. Code, § 46603(a)(1).)  If a final determination is not issued within the provisional period of attendance, the student must enroll in the school district of residence or in another educational program.  (Ed. Code, § 46603(a)(3).)

Students who are under consideration for expulsion or who have been expelled may not appeal interdistrict attendance denials or decisions while expulsion proceedings are pending or during the term of the expulsion.  (Ed. Code, § 46601.)
