Student Transfer Request - Decision Appeal Process
If a transfer is denied by the requested school principal, an appeal letter may be submitted to the Student Services Department. In the appeal letter, the parent/guardian needs to provide detailed information and reasoning why the transfer should be approved. See below for guidelines:
- The deadline for Grades 1-12 student transfer appeals is June 1.
- Appeal requests for kindergarten students who were registered prior to June 1 shall be in writing to the Supervisor of Elementary Counseling and Related Services by June 30.
- Appeal requests for kindergarten students who were registered after June 1 shall be in writing to the Supervisor of Elementary Counseling and Related Services within 30 days of registration.
- The Supervisor of Elementary Counseling and Related Services or the Supervisor of Secondary Counseling and Student Support Services in consultation with the Director of Student Services will review each case and approve or deny the transfer appeal request. This decision is final.
Student transfer appeals for students shall be submitted via email (administrative assistant email included) to the following supervisors. If unable to email, a mailing address is provided:
