Student Transfers

We appreciate your interest in transferring your student to Piedmont Public Schools. PPS makes decisions about student transfers in accordance with Piedmont Public Schools Board of Education Student Transfers Policy and state law.
 
The following information is provided for your convenience:
 
  • The State Department of Education requires that the following form be completed to apply for a transfer: Student Transfer Form. This form must be submitted via email to enrollment@piedmontschools.org. Parents who need access to technology to print or complete the form, or those wishing to fill out a paper copy, can visit Piedmont Schools Administration building at 615 Edmond Road NW, Piedmont, OK.
  • Families requesting student transfer must also complete the Piedmont Schools Enrollment Form.
  • Upon receipt of the application, the District shall stamp the application with the time and date on which it was received to ensure that the District can review applications in the order in which they are received.
  • Mid-year transfer requests will be considered within 10 business days of the district receiving the application. 
  • New transfers are accepted on a first-come, first-served basis. Students who attended the district on a transfer during the 2023-24 school year will be automatically accepted pending approval from the district. The law also gives preference to children of active-duty military personnel.
  • Piedmont Schools will begin accepting transfer applications for the 2024-25 school year on June 1, 2024. Decisions about transfers for the 2024-25 school year will be made after July 1, 2024, once capacity data has been determined for each grade level and site within the school district. We will contact parents directly about the approval status of their child’s transfer.
  • To accept a transfer, enrollment in the grade the parent requests must be under the district-established capacity. The district’s capacity and vacancy numbers for each grade and school can be found below.
  • Transfers may be denied based on capacity, attendance and/or discipline issues.
  • Transfers for siblings must be considered separately.
  • If the grade a student requests is overcapacity, he/she will be offered the opportunity to be placed on a waiting list.
  • Transfer students must abide by eligibility requirements established by the Oklahoma Secondary Schools Activities Association (OSSAA) for OSSAA-sanctioned activities.
  • If a transfer request is denied by the administration, the parent or legal guardian of the student may appeal the denial within ten (10) days of notification of denial to the Board of Education.  The Board of Education shall consider the appeal at its next regularly scheduled board meeting if notice is provided prior to the statutory deadline for posting the agenda for the meeting. For more information on the appeal process, please review the district’s student transfer policy.
Questions about the transfer process should be directed to Piedmont Public Schools Administration by phone at 405-373-2311 or email enrollment@piedmontschools.org
