Inter-District Transfers

PLEASE NOTE: If you move out of Livermore anytime during the school year, you must notify the district within five (5) days of moving. If you would like your child to remain in LVJUSD, you MUST complete an inter-district transfer request from your new district in order to continue attending school in LVJUSD. This needs to be done immediately upon moving.

- Students who are enrolled in LVJUSD and want to attend a school in another district.
