TRANSFER REQUESTS
The Intra/Interdistrict Transfer priority window for the 2024-25 school year opens November 1, 2023 - December 15, 2023
The Governing Board desires to provide enrollment options that meet the diverse needs and interests of district students, parents and guardians while also balancing enrollment in order to maximize the efficient use of district facilities.
There are two processes by which a parent may request approval to attend a school other than their neighborhood school:
- InterDistrict Transfers
- IntraDistrict Transfers
All Transfer Requests are subject to space availability at the school, grade, and /or program requested, depending on the time of submission. They are NOT guaranteed. Please plan to attend your your school of residence unless you are notified that your transfer is approved.
Hemet USD Board Policy requires transfer students to maintain 90% attendance and good behavior (no out of school suspensions).
If your child already attends the requested transfer school, he or she may continue to attend there until a grade span change (grades 5 and /or 8) unless you received a letter stating otherwise.
InterDistrict Transfer Requests
An InterDistrict transfer allows your child to attend a school outside of your school district of residence.
You must complete a form to be released from your district of residence to begin the process. All InterDistrict transfers require for a proof of reason to be provided when submitting this request.
Once HUSD or your district approves the release, the receiving district will consider your request.
The length of approvals are based on the InterDistrict agreements adopted by both governing boards and may last through grade span changes when your child will enter a new school (middle school or high school)
After December 15, your transfer may not be reviewed until a minimum of 10 days after school starts and approved or denied based on space available however, you will NOT be placed on a waiting list.
Approved transfers can be revoked due to chronic non-attendance (>10% of school days), truancies (>30 minutes tardy or early release), or disciplinary issues.
To submit appeals for InterDistrict transfers, you must submit an appeal form to the Enrollment Center. If your appeal is denied, you may submit an appeal to the county by visiting the Riverside County Office of Education website at: www.rcoe.us
Requests submitted after December 15 may not be considered until a minimum of 10 days after school begins and class loads are determined.
