As a valued benefit for employees, Blue Valley Schools recognizes the importance of providing opportunities for district staff to enroll their children in the district where they work. This opportunity supports district employees' unique personal and professional needs and reinforces the district’s commitment to its staff.

STAFF STUDENT TRANSFER CONSIDERATIONS
Employees requesting a transfer may be asked to meet with administration at the current school they work to discuss their request. Other transfer considerations include:
- Requests received after April 1 will be reviewed in August after the registration period ends. Occasionally decisions regarding requests made prior to April 1 may also need to wait until the August registration period is completed.
- Once a student has been approved for a transfer, it is not necessary to renew that transfer in order for the student to remain in the requested feeder system.
- Bus service cannot be provided to students attending school outside his/her attendance area.
- Transfer decisions are based on available classroom space, not overall building enrollment. Occasionally buildings may be closed to all incoming transfer requests.
- Requests are reviewed on a case-by-case, first-come-first-served basis. Please apply for a transfer as early as possible.
- A transfer approval does not automatically apply to siblings. Siblings must apply separately for transfers.
- An applicant's schedule may vary depending on class availability at the new school he/she will be attending.
- Parents/guardians are responsible for requesting enrollment fee refunds from their current school.
- Blue Valley Schools reserves the right to suspend or revoke a transfer approval at any time.
- If the parent's employment with Blue Valley ends, the student may finish the current semester and then will be withdrawn.
- All high school students who transfer will be subject to all eligibility rules of the Kansas State High School Activities Association (KSHSAA) and the Blue Valley Board of Education. KSHSAA's guidelines can be found online. Questions about this should be directed to the transfer school's activity/athletic director.
- If a transfer is approved, the applicant agrees to maintain enrollment at the new school for at least two consecutive semesters.
- District Office will communicate a transfer request decision via email or by phone.
