Enrollment Information

     

Is my home in the Reed Union School District?
The Reed Union School District serves Belvedere, Tiburon, and part of East Corte Madera. There are some areas, however, which are not part of the district, even though they may appear to be part of Tiburon and may indeed carry Tiburon in their mailing address. Cypress Hollow, Strawberry, and Strawberry Point areas are in the Mill Valley School District. The Marin County Assessor's Office (415-499-7215, X6) can quickly answer whether or not an address is in a particular school district by simply looking to see what school district receives your school property tax dollars. You may also contact our Superintendent's Office at 415-381-1112 for further information concerning District boundaries.

How do I register my child for School?
Children are registered directly at the school site. If you are registering more than one child, it is necessary to show each school site all of the documents required for registration.

How do I apply for an interdistrict transfer?
District Policy: The Reed Union School District is a Basic Aid District, which means that our district does not receive additional funds from the State to support students who transfer into the District . As a result, every student who attends the District, through an interdistrict transfer, reduces the support available to students who reside in the District. Therefore, this district will approve interdistrict transfers into the district ONLY under exceptional circumstances unique to the child concerned, when no other suitable school attendance option exists, and when the other criteria (see below) specified have been satisfied:

Space is available.
Student Applicant has a satisfactory citizenship record.
The Districts finds the transfer is in the best interests of the student applicant and the District.
The transfer does not adversely affect an existing desegregation plan of the District or the district of residence.
Student Applicant has appropriately agreed to and signed an Interdistrict Attendance Contract.

Interdistrict transfers must be approved by both school districts - district of residence and district of desired attendance. Interdistrict transfers are approved annually and only for one school year. Renewal applications must be made yearly (usually in May). The same criteria for approval that are applied to new transfer requests will be applied to renewal requests. Requests for transfers for "Into" and "Out of" the district are done in the same way:

How to Apply:
Obtain a Request for Interdistrict Transfer form (this form may be obtained from either of the districts superintendent's office). Complete and return request form to the district of residence's Superintendent's Office. When approved by the district of residence it will be forwarded to the district of desired attendance Superintendent's Office. When approved by both districts, the applicant will be notified by mail.

Reed District's interdistrict transfer policies are available from the Superintendent's Office. For copies of the policies or for any further information concerning interdistrict transfer requests, please call the Superintendent's Office (415-381-1112).
