NORTH MANCHESTER - Parents of students who have legal settlement in nearby school corporations and who would like their child to attend one of the Manchester Community Schools should make an appointment with the school's counselor to discuss the possibilities of attendance for next school year.
A transfer application and an interview with the principal or designee of the receiving school will need to be completed prior to the consideration of the transfer. Once the principal and superintendent have made the transfer determinations, the legal guardian of the student will be notified.
No transfer student shall be accepted for enrollment for athletic reasons.
Manchester Community Schools does not anticipate a charge in tuition to out-of-district students who enroll in grades kindergarten to 12th grade before the official student count day in September. If a student is accepted after count day, transfer tuition will be charged. All tuition, fees and other charges owed for the school year must be paid to the treasurer of Manchester Community Schools by the last student day of the school year for the student to be considered as a transfer student the following school year.Transfers will be considered on an annual basis. The parents or guardians of currently enrolled Manchester transfer students will be notified by June 10 of their placement for the following school year.
