Information should be updated during the school year as needed. If the family moves out of the school district, the parents/guardians are responsible for notifying the school office so that a school transfer may be initiated if necessary. Failure to do so will result in the school reporting this non- compliance to the Board of Education. Automatic withdrawal of the student, a fine of $1,000, and legal action may result for falsifying records. A student must attend school within the district in which he/she resides unless a hardship has been granted by the Board of Education. Proof of residency may be requested at any time during the school year along with the custodial parents’/guardians’ driver’s license information.
