Intent to Return 

The Intent to Return process replaces a previous process known as Annual Data Update (ADU).  It ensures that schools are adequately staffed for the upcoming school year and allows families the opportunity to submit student health information and release agreements electronically. Schools may have other site-specific forms to complete later.  Even if your child is not returning, use the form to provide the district with valuable feedback.

Transfers

A request to have your child attend a new school or a non-neighborhood school for the present school year requires an Administrative Transfer.

Applying to have your child attend a new school or a non-neighborhood school for the next school year is not considered a transfer and is handled through Open Enrollment.

Open Enrollment 

Families may choose to enroll their students in a school outside of their neighborhood to begin the next school year as long as there is sufficient programming, staff and space at the school.

Student October Count 

Annually, under Colorado State Statute (22-54-101, C.R.S.) enrollment data is gathered on Colorado students, including here in Boulder Valley School District, during a designated Student Count Date and a surrounding 11 day window.

Please Note: In BVSD, we typically avoid scheduling events on major religious holidays. The Student Count Day is outside of our district's control and can fall on religious holidays. As long as a student attends on other days within the count window, they will be counted by the State.
