Intra-District Transfers
Intra-District Transfers are when a person lives inside the boundaries of Duluth Public Schools but would like to attend a different school than the one assigned by address. These requests are approved or denied based on many factors, including but not limited to space availability at the school requested, the needs of the student and more. If the request for transfer is denied, parents have a right to make an appeal.
Students who reside outside the city of Duluth must complete the open enrollment process.
Requesting an Intra-District Transfer
Approved student transfer requests will be implemented either at the beginning of the school year or at the beginning of a school year’s second semester.
- Upcoming School Year (Grades 1–12): Applications submitted prior to February 1st
- Upcoming School Year (Kindergarten): Applications submitted by March 15th
- Second Semester Transfers: Applications submitted by December 1st
If your student is new to the district, or re-enrolling in the district, an intra-district transfer form should be submitted with an enrollment application.
