*Transfers without appropriate documentation may be denied. Failure for parent to meet the required timelines established for providing required documentation will result in the interdistrict transfer permit request being considered abandoned. Parents are responsible for providing and sending any documentation or student records to the Requested District which they require or request.

Information provided on the Transfer Request form must be true and accurate. All information provided is subject to verification and the mere act of ​completing the Request Form and providing all of the required documentation ​DOES NOT guarantee that the request will be approved. ​

Students must be enrolled to have their transfer requests considered.  If you haven’t enrolled your student, please start the process at your student’s school of residence.  If you don’t know which school is your school of residence, please click here. 

** Your Inter District Transfer Permit Request must be approved by both the resident school district and district of choice before enrolling in the school of choice. Please do not enroll/disenroll your student until you have received final confirmation from both districts. **

Inter-district Transfer Permit Requests are reviewed annually and can be denied or revoked for a number of reasons:

• Approval would risk the district’s enrollment in the student’s grade or specialized instructional programs to exceed capacity. No Space/Grade/Program Impacted/ CCCOE AR 5200 G (10)

• Student was previously expelled or is currently under consideration for expulsion

• Unsatisfactory behavior records as evidenced by office or class referrals

• Unsatisfactory attendance as evidenced by school attendance records or SARB referral

• Unsatisfactory academic progress/performance

• For such other unusual circumstances which, in the discretion of the Superintendent or designee, justify the denial of the permit

• The number of student transfers out of the district to a school district of choice has reached the limit specified in Education Code 48307 (b) based on the district’s average daily attendance.

• Inaccurate or falsifying any information on the Request Form.

There are no appeal rights to the revocation of an inter-district transfer permit.

If you live within the Byron Union School District area and wish to attend another school within Byron USD boundaries, a parent or legal guardian may apply for an Intra District Transfer Request.

Students must be enrolled to have their transfers considered.  If you haven’t registered your student, please start the process at your student’s school of residence, which is their boundary school.  If you don’t know which school is your boundary school, please click here. 

Intra District Transfer Request Form

*Please make sure to include ALL supporting documentation for the reason of transfer request with the application. This documentation is necessary for review and approval.

Once complete, submit the signed request to your student’s current (designated) school office for review by the principal. Once the principal has reviewed the request, it will be sent to the District Office for final review and approval.

The district office will provide notification on the final determination, and next steps via e-mail.

Once an intra-district transfer is approved, the student will be regarded as a resident of the requested school site and will not require annual renewal; and space is not held at the original school site regardless if it is the school of residence (BP/AR 5116.1).

Please note that the District reserves the right to deny or revoke an intradistrict transfer, at any time, if:

• Class size enrollment at the school of attendance exceeds class size limitations; or

• Causes any walking distance student to be unable to attend their school or residence; or

• Behavior, attendance and/or academic efforts fail to meet the standards of the requested school.

Intra-district transfer decisions are final; there are no appeal rights to these decisions.

All transfers are granted based on space and program availability in the requested school.  Availability is determined by current and projected enrollment needs. 

Transportation will not be provided for students who chose to attend outside their boundary school except as required by 20 USC 6316.
