Question: When do I register my child if I wish to request a Transfer?

 

 

Answer:  Parents who request a "Transfer" (including current transfer students who must apply for a transfer yearly) must register at their current/zoned school.  If accepted to the "Transfer" school, they must re-register between July 25th and July 28th. 

 

Rationale: We must ensure that we do not create overcrowded classrooms or schools.  Zoned students must have first priority. 


 Question: What if I miss the registration deadlines?

 

Answer: Current BCS students must register during the specified timelines.  Note:  Parents who miss the original deadline(s) must wait to register during the late registration periods.
