- the District may change their student’s initial placement as concerns regarding availability of space change.
- their student will not be permitted to displace a student residing within the District.
- interdistrict transfer permits must be renewed annually
- the failure by parents/guardians or their student to abide and follow the conditions contained in the Student Contract on a daily basis may result in the unilateral rescission of the Interdistrict transfer permit and the necessity of their child attending school in their district of residence.
