The application period is underway for Henry County parents who wish to move their children to different schools within the district in accordance with state school choice laws.
Students can transfer within the district provided the chosen school has available classroom space, and families of transfer students are responsible for all transportation to and from school. The deadline to apply is March 1 and the forms are available on the district’s website, www.henry.k12.ga.us.
Proof of residency in Henry County is required during the application process, and each family must take current proofs of residency to the school in its own attendance zone so that school personnel can complete the relevant portion of the application. If the number of transfer requests for a particular school exceed capacity, transfers will be approved through a lottery.
A list of available schools is on the district’s website.
