District School Organizational Plan

 

 

A.                  Purpose & Scope

 

To establish criteria for granting of grandfathering privileges as a result of district initiated boundary changes.

 

 

B.                 General

 

1.   Students affected by district initiated boundary changes may be considered for the following grandfathering privileges:

 

a.                  Students in the Topaz attendance area will be eligible for enrollment in Kraemer Middle School rather than Tuffree Middle School if they have a sibling attending Kraemer concurrently.

 

b.                  Students in the Topaz attendance area shall be assigned to the El Dorado High School attendance area. However, these students shall have a one-time choice upon entering their ninth-grade year  to attend Valencia High School.

 

c.                  Students who will be entering their final year of attendance at a school affected by the boundary change may request continued enrollment at their current school of attendance pursuant to existing board policy on school choice.  These students shall be considered as Priority A for enrollment in their current school and allowed to remain at that school should space be available.

 

2.   An eligible student as identified in section 1 (c) above, shall have a one-time choice between the newly designated school and the enrollment options provided above.  The school selected for attendance will be construed as the student’s school of residence. 

 

3.   Subsequent transfer requests will be considered in accordance with existing district policy.

 

4.   Siblings will be afforded the same grandfathering provisions provided they will be in attendance concurrently with an older brother or sister in the older sibling’s original school of attendance.

 

5.   District transportation will only be provided to the district designated school of attendance in accordance with existing district policy.
