How easy is it to switch high schools during the school year?

School Dilemma: When it is close to the end of the year and you move, do you switch the kids schools?

  • My kids have 2 months to go, we are moving next week within the same district but in different school areas. So, will the school make me switch them or could they stay till the end of the year where they are at? I plan on asking the school but am just curious as to what may happen.

  • Answer:

    I bought a house in another district and still owned my old one and was living in it and my son's school tried to kick him out... depends on how big of jerks your school is...but we didn't stay in the same district at all we went to another state...either way, they were jerks! I had to prove that I owned both houses, show utility bills and everything....

i know its fine for them to stay at the same school for rest of year..i would think so if its same district. but i dont know how your county works.. i dont think you need to switch...new kids new school..could be fun tho.. i think also depending on the mile and distance..if its close than shouldnt be a problem..

I'd keep them in the same school if it's feasible for you to drive them every day. I moved when I was a kid and Mom just took us to school because it was close to the end of the year.

2 months left, I doubt the school board will force your kids to switch. Unless your kids took the bus to school, you may have to provide transportation since the buses will drive within their district. You might be able to keep your kids in the same school if they don't want to leave their friends. I went to a high school outside my district like my sister before me. I switched back but it's possible.

I am pretty sure you are gonna be allowed to stay where you are and transfer at the end of the year.

The school that they currently attend SHOULD allow them to stay and finish out the year with their classmates. If you think you may have a problem, do they really have to know you have moved? Can't that information wait for September? Good luck with the kids and the move Hon! Peace:)

I think they will allow you to stay.

I don't see why they wouldn't let them finish, as long as they don't have to ride the bus, that may be your only issue.

Oh, it's no problem here to get them on a bus route. I called the school bus company about a week ahead of time to let them know where we'd be moving to, and by the time we moved, the bus schedule was all set. And when we moved BACK here, I called 3 days ahead of time to let the bus company know we'd no longer need them. All this happened in a 2 month period of time.

As a Rich Jew, it has been my experience that it's best to keep the kids in the same school and just inform the school wassup... they will let the kids stay in that school until the end of the year.
