DUARTE RESIDENTS: To Leave DUSD to another District
WINDOW TO APPLY FOR:
• 2024-25 SCHOOL YEAR OPEN
• Interdistrict Transfer Policy
Interdistrict permits allow students who reside in one District to attend a school in another district; both districts must approve the transfer. Permits are considered case-by-case and are approved or denied based on the terms and conditions detailed in the District's board policy and administrative regulations. Per EC 46600(a), which states: "Once a pupil in kindergarten or any of grades 1 to 12, inclusive, is enrolled in a school pursuant to this chapter, the pupil shall not have to reapply for an interdistrict transfer, and the governing board of the school district of enrollment shall allow the pupil to continue to attend the school in which he or she is enrolled." Once an interdistrict permit is approved, an annual re-application of the permit is not required if the student continues to attend the approved District for which the permit was initially granted.
*The provisions of the law permit renewal of an interdistrict application for matriculation. The District may require renewals for matriculation from elementary to middle school and middle school to high school. Interdistrict renewals require supporting documentation.
