Transferring a student to another school

  • Each student in NTPS is required to attend school based upon the boundary in which they reside.
     
    If a student wishes to attend a school they do not live in the boundaries of (inside or outside NTPS), they must follow the transfer process. Forms must be submitted by a parent or guardian. Per NTPS Policy 3131 and 3141.
     
    The transfer requst must be submitted annually if the student wishes to continue to a school other than their home school.
     
    In order to ensure space for residential students, the district will restrict or limit transfers at some schools.
     
    Students will not be registered at the requested school until the transfer process is completed and the parents & school have been notified.
