Intradistrict Transfers may be approved by the Superintendent or designee, which will assist in maintaining a balanced enrollment among the District’s campuses. An official Intradistrict application for such transfer must be submitted annually. This application must state the reasons for requesting an Intradistrict Transfer.

INTRAdistrict Transfer Requests for the upcoming school year MUST be returned to the AISD Administration Office annually by July 1 to secure a seat at the requesting campus.

• The Aubrey Independent School District does not accept Intradistrict Transfer applications for students who are residents of other school districts [see Policy FDA (Local)].
• An Intradistrict Transfer will be approved for those qualifying students who are not offered required educational services on their home campuses [see Policy FDB (Local)].
• Transportation convenience or baby-sitter location will not be considered as reason for the Superintendent or designee to reassign an individual student [see Policy FDB (Local)].
• No Intradistrict Transfers will be approved if such a transfer creates a need for additional staffing, changes in classroom space, or causes an enrollment imbalance.
• Intradistrict Transfer students may be returned to their home campus in order to reestablish enrollment balance if an unexpected increase in enrollment on the requested campus occurs.
