A Petition for Transfer of Students (sometimes called a Board-to-Board Transfer) allows a student to request enrollment in a school district outside of their resident district.
The application must first be approved by the resident school district before it can be considered by Rogers Public Schools. Approval from both districts is required.
Transportation for students approved through this process is generally the responsibility of the parent or guardian.
