Students Expelled From Other Districts

The Board of Education may admit students expelled from other districts upon request as long as their admission is consistent with providing a safe, secure and positive school environment for all district students and staff.

In order to prohibit the enrollment of a potentially dangerous student, the Board shall hold a hearing before admitting any student who has been expelled from another district. If the student has been expelled for certain serious reasons specified in Education Code 48915(a) or (c), his/her enrollment may occur only after the term of expulsion, and only if he/she has established legal residence in the district or is enrolled pursuant to an interdistrict attendance agreement.
