TRANSFER PROCESS

Information Regarding Transfers

  • Temecula Valley Unified School District is committed to offering families choices that provide the best educational fit for their children. To be eligible for a transfer, students must demonstrate satisfactory attendance, behavior, and academic effort/progress toward graduation.

    This page explains the wide variety of transfers parents may apply for if they feel a special program or school other than their child’s home school is a better fit for their child.
