Admission of Nonresident Students
Mukilteo School Board Policy 3141 and Procedures 3141-P provide authorization and criteria for acceptance of nonresident students to attend Mukilteo School District schools. The Policy/Procedures provide, in part, as follows:
Any student who resides outside the District may apply to attend a school in the District. Choice Transfer (nonresident) requests for schools at full capacity, as designated by the Superintendent, will not be considered.
The District calculates capacity for out-of-District transfers at the lesser of:
- The sum of permanent capacity and portable capacity, or
- 700 students for elementary schools, 825 students for middle schools, and 1,900 students for high schools.
- In addition, any school that transfers kindergarten students to Pathfinder Kindergarten Center to provide space for the implementation of full-day kindergarten is determined to be over capacity for the purpose of out-of-District transfers.
When a school is closed, specialized programs offered at that school are also closed. This may include Special Education, Highly Capable, etc.
