Vermont 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, stops differences in attendance rules, scheduling, sequencing, grading, course content and assessment from disadvantaging your child, protects eligibility for educational programs and extracurricular academic, athletic and social activities, and helps your child graduate on time.
Work with your Vermont 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 Vermont point of contact at 802-828-6956.
Your military orders showing the move, and whatever school records you have from the previous district.
