Beginning with the 2009–2010 school year this Act allows parents of students enrolled in public elementary or secondary school in the state to enroll their child in a public school in their school district other than the one the child has been assigned by the local board of education. Starting with the 2010–2011 school year, parents may request a transfer for their child to attend a public school outside of the student’s resident school district. In both circumstances parents are responsible for the cost of transportation of their child to and from the school.
