Attendance Records -- Record Keeping - Students Leaving a School

A. Transfer

When a student changes from one St. Louis Public School to another St. Louis Public School during the same school year, the student shall be counted by the school which he/she leaves as a transfer.

This applies to students who transfer to another St. Louis Public School because of change of address and to students who enter another St. Louis Public School on a permit approved by the superintendent or assistant superintendent. This does not apply to students assigned (full-time) to a special education class.

Changes of schools made during the summer vacation shall be counted during the succeeding year as original entries.

B. Withdrawal

When, during a school year, a student leaves to attend a school other than a St. Louis public school; is assigned to a special school; enters lawful employment; leaves school finally for any other valid cause; or whose enrollment ceases on account of death; he/she shall be withdrawn from the enrollment of the St. Louis Public School.

The net number of withdrawals plus the enrollment should equal the registration on any given date.
