- 26-27 Elementary

No district transportation is provided for any approved transfer. If attendance and discipline become an issue, building principals may cancel an approved transfer.
- Student athletic eligibility is determined by the Ohio High School Athletic Association (OHSAA). Information regarding eligibility is located in Bylaw 4—Student Eligibility, Section 7—Transfers. A copy of the OHSAA Bylaws can be obtained through the athletic office or online at www.ohsaa.org.
- In addition to OHSAA’s eligibility bylaws, the following shall also apply to intra-district transfer requests:
- Students may only participate in the building where academically registered/enrolled.
- A student is ruled eligible and eligibility can only be changed by the OHSAA Commissioner’s office.
- Failure to request a transfer to maintain continuity in an academic program will result in a student’s loss of eligibility.
- If the student’s custodial parent / guardian has moved to another HCSD high school or middle school’s attendance area and the student has requested a consequent change in eligibility, such a request will be automatically submitted to OHSAA for approval.
- In cases of joint custody by parents, eligibility remains at the school where the student initially participated in an interscholastic contest or enrolled.
- In cases of a change of custody, which results in a change of school, the court approval must be submitted to the OHSAA for approval prior to participation.
- Eligibility guidelines apply to all transfers granted in grades 7—12, including from grade 8 to grade 9.
- **Changing middle schools without checking address and home school assignment may result in eligibility issues.**
- Contact the Athletic Department at your high school or middle school with questions on athletic eligibility.
