What is an Elementary school Transfer?
An Elementary School Transfer is also known as an Intra-District Transfer. Newark Unified School District assigns your neighborhood school (home school) based on your home address. If you would like to apply for another school within NUSD, you will need to fill out an Elementary School Transfer form. Requests for
enrolled students to change schools WITHIN NUSD will be accepted at the
District Office beginning February 8, 2022. An Elementary School Transfer request must be completed for each student you wish to transfer. Elementary School Transfer requests that can be accommodated, are approved on a first come first served basis. Elementary School Transfer requests are NOT accepted at the school sites.
How Do I Apply for an Elementary School Transfer?
Please submit your request via email to nlemas@newarkunified.org or schedule an appointment to drop off your form in person by contacting Nicole Lemas at 510-818-4202.
