I LIVE INSIDE CANBY SCHOOL DISTRICT AND WANT TO TRANSFER TO A DIFFERENT CANBY SCHOOL

Generally, students should attend the school assigned to them based on where they live, per school board policy. However, we recognize that transfer to another school within the district may be best for the individual student in certain situations. Therefore, the district may approve parent/guardian requests for transfers to another school, depending on availability or conditions involving hardship***.

This form is for families who wish to transfer their student from their current Canby school to another due to extenuating circumstances or hardship.

Note: This does not apply to Trost students. For information on Trost attendance and transfers, please contact the school.
