If you are using your cell phone to access the New Student Enrollment application, turning your phone to the landscape position helps. 

Each school site and the District Office have a Chromebook available for families to use if they don’t have access to a computer. This also provides a good opportunity for families and staff to meet each other. 

If you are unable to access or complete an online application, please contact the school your child will attend or the District Office for help. 

In order for a non-resident student (living outside of Nooksack Valley’s boundaries) to attend one of Nooksack’s schools, a Choice Transfer Request must be submitted to the school district and accepted by school administration.

The quickest way is to complete the Choice Transfer Request online.

The other option is to complete a Choice Transfer Form and turn it into your resident school district office for processing. Forms are available at Nooksack’s district office or available for download below:

If you have any questions regarding non-resident transfers, please contact Melissa Phillips at the district office (360)988-4754

Non-resident acceptance into Nooksack Valley School District is for one academic year only. All non-resident student applications expire at the end of each academic year. Families must re-submit a transfer request form each year for continued enrollment in Nooksack Valley Schools.

Submission of the Choice Transfer Request does not guarantee admission into Nooksack Valley School District. You will be notified in writing once a decision has been made.

NOTE: Due to high enrollment counts, decisions regarding admission might not be made until the end of August.
