In-District Transfers: Transfers between schools within TTSD. The In-District transfer process applies to TTSD Residents Only. 

Applications for the 2023-2024 school year opens March 1, 2023.

Limited space is currently available within our schools. Students who wish to apply to attend a district school other than their “home school” must submit a formal transfer request. In-district transfer requests will be considered based on hardship criteria (see below) and space available. A formal Transfer Agreement will be issued once the request is approved by both principals.

Please Note: The following TTSD schools are not currently accepting transfer requests:

Deer Creek Elementary

Durham Elementary

Twality Middle School
