Board approves second and final reading of admission policy F17
Summary
The Colchester School District board approved the second and final reading of Admission of Students policy F17, confirming rules on residency, kindergarten/first-grade eligibility, transfers, tuitioning and senior-year moves.
The Colchester School District School Board approved the second and final reading of Admission of Students policy F17 on June 3.
Administrators presented the policy as a nonrequired but commonly used document that provides transparency to families about the registration process, including proof-of-residency requirements, kindergarten and first-grade eligibility, grade placement for transfer students, tuitioning for students from towns without high schools, and rules for seniors who move during their senior year. The policy had no recommended changes since the first reading.
A board member identified a typographical correction in the minutes related to a principal’s school assignment and the board corrected the minutes before approving them, but no substantive changes to policy F17 were requested. A board member moved to approve the second and final reading of F17; the motion passed by voice vote.
