Staff will annually prepare a report in February on those grade levels and buildings that are to be considered unavailable to transfer.

 

In determining which attendance areas shall be unavailable to transfer, the following factors will be considered:

1. Available capacity (i.e., space for the efficient and effective organization of the total enrollment),
2. The impact on the educational program within the building,
3. Prior enrollment levels for the facility, and
4. Anticipated future growth within the attendance area.

During the school year, it may become necessary for a grade level to be designated by the Superintendent or designee as unavailable for transfer because of overcrowding. Any time it becomes necessary to close a total attendance center to transfer because of the factors noted above, the Lincoln Board of Education will be informed of this administrative decision.
