ENROLLMENT: What do I do if I am building/purchasing a home in another assignment area?
CategoriesDepartment |
A parent or court-appointed custodian with an established Wake County address who has an offer-to-purchase contract on a new home with a closing date during the school year may request a transfer to the base school for the future address.
If the closing date is within 45 days, the parent or court-appointed custodian should complete a transfer request, attach a copy of the completed offer to purchase contract, and give it to the future school.
If the closing date is more than 45 days away, the parent or court-appointed custodian should submit a transfer request along with a copy of the offer-to-purchase contract to the Growth and Planning Department at 3600 Wake Forest Road. For all “future move” transfers, the original Wake County address will be used as the student’s address of record. Once the family has moved into their new home, the parent or court-appointed custodian should present final proof of the new home in the form of a current water, gas, or electric bill in their name OR the recent settlement statement for the new home. The student’s address of record will be updated at that time.
