SCHOOL-INITIATED TRANSFERS
It is the belief of
the Board of Education that in order to maintain a school environment change in
students, intradistrict transfers of students
initiated by the school of attendance may be necessary.
Transfers initiated
by the school administration are deemed to be in the best interest of the
school and the student when the student is unresponsive to disciplinary
practices and efforts to develop appropriate school and learning behavior, or
when the student is in need of a change of peer group.
Specific criteria for
school initiated transfer shall be specified in the discipline plan of each
school site. Additionally, it shall be the responsibility of the school
initiating the transfer to ensure that the student and parent/guardian are
afforded due process including, but not limited to, notification of possible
transfer prior to the initiation of the transfer, conferences with the student
and parent/guardian, and specification of the conditions for return to the
school of residence. Moreover the school initiating the student transfer shall
ensure that all necessary services and programs will be available to the
student. All transfers shall be reviewed annually.
