We get it — Pioneer is pretty special! If your family lives outside district boundaries and would like to attend Pioneer Elementary or Pioneer Middle School, you can submit a choice transfer request.

A few quick definitions before we jump into this process together:

Choice transfer request: Your request to enroll your child in a school district other than the one in which they currently live.
Resident school district: The school district in which the student currently lives.
Nonresident school district: Any school district outside of the district in which the student currently lives.

How do we decide which requests are accepted?
Our school and district administrators review every nonresident transfer request individually. All requests are evaluated using the standards set out in Board Policy 3141 – Nonresident Students. In short, these standards consider:

District financial hardship
Current grade-level, school, and district capacity
Our ability to meet the student's needs
The student's disciplinary record
The student's records from online school programs
Conflicts with district innovation academy cooperatives

How do we start the process?
Start by filling out a Choice Transfer Request application, available through the Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction. When you have completed the application, your request will be sent to your resident school district. Your resident district must release your student for the process to move forward.

We will review your application using the standards above.

You will need to file a Choice Transfer request every year.
