INTERDISTRICT TRANSFERS are for resident students who want to attend a school in another school district or non-resident students who wish to attend a Hood River County school. Students must complete transfer paperwork at both resident and non-resident school district offices. Both school districts must approve the transfer before it can be finalized. Please review this school district policy: JECB Admission of Nonresident Students.
There are two ways to attend the Hood River County School District (HRCSD) if you reside outside of Hood River County.
- To transfer from another Oregon school district
- To pay tuition
Transfer from another Oregon school district
The Hood River County School District Board of Directors approved up to 30 Oregon students being permitted to attend Hood River County schools through Inter District Transfer. If a student is granted an Inter District Transfer, they can maintain their spot until graduation. If they leave the school district for any reason, they will not be automatically granted a space to return and will have to reapply.
A student wanting to attend school within Hood River County School District must follow these steps:
- Obtain a release form from their resident district.
- Submit the approved release to the superintendent's office, hrcsd.superintendent@hoodriver.k12.or.us
The request will be evaluated based on space at the requested school and grade level.
Pay tuition
