Thank you for visiting our website to learn more about our student transfer policy. We appreciate your interest in Wyandotte Public Schools and do our best to welcome additional students to our district whenever it is possible.

WPS makes decisions about student transfers in accordance with district policy and state law. You can view our comprehensive district policy below; however, we are providing the following information for your convenience:

The State Department of Education requires that the Student Transfer Form be completed. Parents can now submit the out-of-district transfers online: sde.ok.gov/student-transfers

Parents who need access to technology can visit the Superintendent's Office, located at 5 S 1st Street, Wyandotte, OK.

Wyandotte Public Schools will begin accepting transfer applications for the 2024-25 school year on June 1, 2024. Decisions about transfers for the 2024-25 school year will be made after July 1, 2024, once capacity data has been determined for each grade level and site within the school district. We will contact parents directly about the approval status of their child’s transfer.

Mid-year transfer requests will be considered within 10 days of the district receiving the application.

New transfers are accepted on a first-come, first-served basis. Students who attended Wyandotte Public Schools on a transfer during the 2023-24 school year will be automatically accepted pending approval from the district. The law also gives preference to children of active-duty military personnel.

To accept a transfer, enrollment in the grade the parent requests must be under the district-established capacity. The district’s capacity and vacancy numbers for each grade and school can be found below.

Transfers may be denied based on capacity, attendance, and/or discipline issues.

Transfers for siblings must be considered separately.

If the grade a student requests is overcapacity, he/she will be offered the opportunity to be placed on a waiting list.

Transfer students must abide by eligibility requirements established by the Oklahoma Secondary Schools Activities Association (OSSAA) (see Rule 8 Exception) for OSSAA-sanctioned activities.

If the administration denies a transfer request, the student's parent or legal guardian may appeal to the Board of Education within ten (10) days of notification of denial. If notice is provided prior to the statutory deadline for posting the agenda for the meeting, the Board of Education shall consider the appeal at its next regularly scheduled board meeting. Please review the district’s student transfer policy below for more information on the appeal process.
