The Virginia Beach School Board has established attendance and eligibility criteria for those students who request out-of-zone transfers or have been transferred to a school other than the students' established attendance area. School Board Regulation 5-14.1 identifies and explains these requirements in detail. Unless otherwise specified in policy or regulation, a request for an out-of-zone attendance shall not be approved by the appropriate school official where a school exceeds its optimum building utilization level by ten (10%) percent or more.

Prior to requesting an out-of-zone transfer, please read School Board Regulation 5-14.1 and use the appropriate Student Placement Request Forms available below.
