DISTRICT TRANSFERS
It is the general intent of the district that students attend their neighborhood schools - that is, the school that serves the attendance area in which they reside. However, the district also supports the concept of school choice within the limitations of space availability. There are three processes by which a parent may request approval to attend a school other than their neighborhood school. Those processes are: Open Enrollment Intradistrict Transfers, Regular Intradistrict Transfers and Interdistrict Transfers. For additional information on student transfers, contact the Central Registration Office at: 951-940-6102.
TRANSFER APPLICATION TIMELINE
Applications for Interdistrict (from and to other school districts) transfers will be accepted throughout the school year. If applications exceed the spaces available for transfers, a lottery will be held for approvals. A first-come, first-served system does not apply. Intradistrict (between schools within the Val Verde School District) transfers will be accepted between January 7, 2013 – February 28, 2013 for the 2013-2014 school year.

OPEN ENROLLMENT INTRADISTRICT TRANSFERS (Between VVUSD Schools)
Open Enrollment and regular intradistrict transfer requests for the 2013 – 2014 school year will be held from January 7, 2013 – February 28, 2013. Open enrollment is subject to space availability. District residents who want their children to attend a school other than their neighborhood school, may apply for a transfer during the Open Enrollment process. The district determines how many spaces are available by grade level at each school for such transfers. It is possible that no spaces will be available at some schools. (Rancho Verde High School is impacted and closed to transfers. Lakeside Middle School, Vista Verde Middle School and Sierra Vista (K–6) Elementary School have limited space for transfers.) This decision takes into consideration enrollment projections, staffing projections, and the number of transfers to be approved by law in "priority categories." These "priority categories" are: new requests for siblings of previously approved transfer students, continuing transfer
students, and students of employees at that school. New requests are then approved, if space is available. If there are more requests than space available, then a lottery is conducted to award approvals. By law, a system of "first come, first served" is not allowed; decisions must be by a random selection process. Students approved through the Open Enrollment process establish residence at that school. Approved transfers can be revoked due to attendance, behavior, lack of academic progress, or increased attendance from students within the school boundary.
REGULAR INTRADISTRICT TRANSFERS (Non Open Enrollment – Between VVUSD Schools)
Residents may request a transfer to another district school for reasons such as pupil adjustment, parental choice, and to complete the school year, among other reasons. This process begins by submitting a Val Verde Intradistrict Transfer Request Form to Central Registration located at 972 W. Morgan St. Perris, CA 92571. Approvals are on an annual basis. Approved transfers can be revoked due to attendance, behavior, lack of academic progress, or increased attendance from students within the school boundary. These transfers are approved on a case-by-case basis and subject to space availability.Rancho Verde High School is impacted and closed to transfers. Lakeside Middle School, Vista Verde Middle School and Sierra Vista (K–6) Elementary School have limited space for transfers.Requests submitted after February 28, 2013 for the 2013 – 2014 school year will be considered after the school year begins and class loads are determined.
INTERDISTRICT TRANSFERS (From Outside VVUSD)
Residents who live in another district may request a transfer to attend a Val Verde school for reasons which include but are not limited to: employment in the VVUSD, child care, senior status, and an impending move. Transfers are approved on a case-by-case basis, subject to space availability. District policy establishes priority for siblings of previously approved students and also for district employees. Interdistrict transfers are subject to revocation for attendance, behavior or lack of academic progress, and must be renewed annually.
