California belongs to the interstate compact that smooths school transitions for military children. It speeds up enrollment when records have not arrived yet, keeps differences between states in attendance rules, scheduling, course sequencing, grading, course content and assessment from disadvantaging your child, protects eligibility for programs and extracurricular activities, and helps your child graduate on time.
Work with your school district first. If the issue is not resolved, submit an assistance request to the Military Interstate Children’s Compact Commission. You can also call the California point of contact at 619-247-9109.
Your military orders showing the move, and whatever school records you have from the previous district.
