Internal School Transfers

The Berkley School District allows parents/guardians to request a transfer to a Berkley school outside of their normal attendance area.  Internal transfers may be granted when:

  • Staff and facilities of the receiving building can accommodate your student.
  • The parent/guardian of the student is not requesting the transfer to avoid meeting legitimate academic, attendance, or conduct requirements.

Please note:

  • Submitting an Internal School Transfer Request does not guarantee approval.
  • If your request is approved, your child must remain in the new school for the entire academic year.
  • Transportation to the requested school is the sole responsibility of the parent/guardian.
    • Mid-year transfers are not permissible.


Current Students

Students who are currently enrolled in the Berkley School District who are considering changing schools for the following school year must submit an Internal School Transfer Request.
