Rhode Island belongs to the interstate compact that smooths school transitions for military children. It speeds up enrollment when records have not arrived from the previous district, keeps differences in attendance rules, scheduling, sequencing, grading, course content and assessment from holding your child back, protects eligibility for educational programs and extracurricular academic, athletic and social activities, and helps your child graduate on time.
Work with your school district first. If the issue is not resolved, submit an MIC3 assistance request. You can also call the Rhode Island points of contact at 401-825-3550 or 401-849-2122.
Your military orders showing the move, and whatever school records you have from the previous district.
