[quote=Anonymous]There is a listing on the FCPS site.  I think pupil placement.  There are four reasons it could be allowed.  The most commonly approved would be for childcare reasons (i.e. grandmother watches the kids after school and she lives in X district).  But, the school has to be "open" to take outside boundary students.  Not all schools are open b/c they are already at capacity.   You can find that info on the "dashboard" on the FCPS site.

The other reasons are "family circumstances" -- which might mean that you are divorced and the kids sometimes live with the other parent, or there could be psychological reasons (ie. child has been the victim of bullying at a certain school or something).  You can't get a transfer just b/c you like the principal better at another school, you like the demographics of another school, or it is closer to your house.  Those will not be approved.  Also, any approval to transfer is only good for one year and has to be renewed and approved each year thereafter.  [/quote]
