Transfer Requests

Thank you for your interest in Central Kitsap Schools. Students are encouraged to enroll at their attendance area school; however, if your family would prefer to enroll at a school outside your neighborhood, you can submit a transfer request.

Space must be available in a school and/or program before we can approve a transfer and we give priority to resident students of Central Kitsap School District. Transfers are approved on an annual basis and need to be submitted each school year. 

Please email transfers@ckschools.org if you have any questions.

  • Please visit Washington Interscholastic Activities Association (WIAA) Student Eligibility Center for information about how transfers can impact athletic eligibility.
