This is an explanation of the open enrollment transfer policy of Huntington Beach Union High School District for the 2009-2010 school year. If your home address is located within our school district boundaries and you wish to request a transfer from your home school to another high school within the district, then you must submit a petition for a transfer during the open enrollment period February 2 through February 13, 2009.
Open Enrollment Transfer Process:
If you wish to request a transfer, a Petition for Transfer form may be obtained from your home school during the open enrollment period February 2, 2009 through February 13, 2009. It must be completed and signed by the student and parent and submitted to your home school by February 13, 2009 at 4 p.m.
If the transfer is granted, the student and parent will be sent an Acceptance Contract by the school of choice, which must be signed and returned to the school of choice by March 13, 2009 at 4 p.m.
Open Enrollment Information and the District Guidelines:
• All schools will adhere to these designated transfer time lines.
• Space must be available at the school of choice. If space is limited, transfer applications will be selected randomly, and a waiting list will be established.
• Parents may submit a petition for transfer to more than one school, but may return the Acceptance Contract to only one school of choice.
• Parents must provide transportation to the school of choice.
• Once the transfer process has been completed, it is considered to be a non-revocable, one-year commitment for the 2009-2010 school year.
• Once enrolled, a student is assured of continued enrollment at that school. The school of choice becomes the “home school.”
