Brunswick County Schools' policy 4150 allows reassignment of students under the following circumstances if space is available in the school requested: 

(1) Student requires special services, programs, courses not available at his/her assigned school. 

(2) Parents have changed residence within Brunswick County. This request is for the student to remain at the school where he/she is currently assigned for the remainder of the school year. 

(3) Extreme and/or unusual circumstances, including hardship situations which may affect the student's physical, emotional, social, or mental welfare. A written description of reason should be provided. This statement must include any supporting documentation to explain the hardship. 

(4) Parent is a Brunswick County Schools employee and prefers the student attend the school where he/she works. 

Please note:
Due to the continued rapid growth of Brunswick County, BCS is
unable to accommodate requests submitted on the basis
of child care, transportation, or parent convenience.

► A transfer is a privilege. Parents are expected to maintain a positive working relationship with the school. Principals may rescind the out-of-county approval of any student who does not maintain satisfactory grades, conduct, school attendance, and punctuality. Requests for transfer must be renewed annually.

► School bus transportation will not be provided for transfer students. The parent must provide the child's transportation to and from school.
