Why NCJUSD may deny an incoming interdistrict transfer request

The initial transfer may be denied due to lack of space in the requested grade level or due to lack of space in a special program.  Students who are denied may be placed on a waitlist and notified when space does become available during the school year.

The transfer may be withdrawn by either district any time the student’s attendance, achievement, or behavior does not meet the reasonable expectations of school officials.

To  transfer into the NCJUSD/Spring Grove School:

The district will attempt to accommodate all requests for school transfers based on program and classroom space availability, and in accordance with law, board policy and administrative regulation.

• Renewals:  You are responsible for submitting renewal requests each year to your district of residence and for including the required documents.
• New:  Requests for the 2023-2024 school will be accepted beginning February 6, 2023.  Final decisions will be made by mid summer.
• Interdistrict Transfer requests are accepted based on space availability in the grade level and space in requested programs.
