Board sets recommended transfer capacities at 20 students per grade
Summary
Citing Indiana code requirements, the board established recommended capacities for nonresident transfer students at 20 per grade (including kindergarten) to promote transferability; the motion carried by voice vote.
The superintendent told the board that Indiana code requires the district to establish recommended capacities by grade for transfer requests. The board set recommended capacities at 20 students per grade level (including kindergarten) and approved the recommendation by voice vote.
The Superintendent said the district keeps capacities relatively high "to promote transferability and bring kids in anytime we can," and noted transfer applications will be accepted until the state's second count day as established by Indiana rules. The motion was moved and seconded and carried by voice vote. The transcript contains a district name variant in discussion ("Flat Rock Hall Creek School Corporation") but the official name is recorded in the meeting packet as Flat Rock-Hawcreek School Corporation.
No individual transfer approvals or specific student cases were discussed at the meeting; the board set the annual capacities policy used for admission of nonresident applicants.
