arrow Previous bar Next arrow

District residency status may be granted to an elementary grade student (grades K-8) if the student's parent/guardian works within the district boundaries. Proof of the parent/guardian's employment within the district shall be required prior to initial enrollment. (Education Code 48204)

(cf. 5117 - Interdistrict Attendance)

The Superintendent or designee shall review each proposed or continued enrollment and determine whether it would result in additional costs to the district in excess of state funds. If it is determined that excess costs would be incurred by the district, the Board may deny the student's admission.

Students enrolled in the district on the basis of parent/ guardian employment shall not be obliged to reapply for enrollment the next school year. They may continue to attend school in the district through the 12th grade, subject to restrictions specified in law related to excess costs and negative impact on desegregation plans. (Education Code 48204)

If more than one percent of the district's ADA or 75 students, whichever is greater, are admitted to other districts on the basis of parent/guardian place of employment, the Board may deny any further transfers out of the district on this basis. (Education Code 48204)

The Superintendent or designee shall notify the district of residence of all children requesting admittance into the district on the basis of parent/guardian place of employment. Unless approved by the student's current district of attendance, no student shall be admitted into the district on the basis of a parent/guardian place of employment in excess of the limits imposed by law.

The student's parent/guardian shall be notified in writing of the Board's decision to deny admission or transfer out of the district. The notice shall include specific reasons for the denial. (Education Code 48204)

Notifications sent to parents/guardians at the beginning of each year shall include information about employment-based school attendance options. (Education Code 48980)
