Transfers

A special transfer window is a dedicated time of year to apply for student transfers into the District or to other campuses within the Arlington Independent School District.

For example, if your student attends Amos Elementary, but you’d like them to be enrolled at Berry Elementary, you can apply for a transfer for the 2020-2021 school year. If seats are available, your child may be able to attend your preferred school.

Yes, there are two types of transfer windows:

1. The annual Regular Transfer Window generally happens in the fall semester of each year and students are considered based on a Board-approved priority order where there is space available.
2. The Special Transfer Window can open at any time after the annual Regular Transfer Window. During the Spring Special Transfer Window, students are considered on a “first come-first served” basis where space is available.

Yes, the Arlington ISD is an open enrollment district and will consider student transfers from inside and outside of the District.

• The Special Transfer Window opens at 9 a.m. on Tuesday, May 26

• The Special Transfer Window closes at 4 p.m. on Thursday, June 4

The window for Specialized Programs will remain open until the appropriate number of seats are filled.

No, there is no transfer fee.

All applications for the Special Transfer Window (including those from employees) will be considered on a first come - first served basis according to the digital timestamp on the application. That means that applications will be considered in the order they’re received.

During the annual Regular Transfer Window that occurs in the fall semester, Arlington ISD employees are given the first priority to transfer their child/ren to the District. This Special Transfer Window from May 26 – June 4, 2020 is a first come - first served opportunity.

Yes, you can request transfers for up to three schools.
