transfer to another school. If you wish to have your child remain in the assigned school, you do not have to do anything.
![Page 29: No Child Left Behind (NCLB) Public School Choice The School District Of Palm Beach County May 2011.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032723/56649d085503460f949da1e1/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)

• No. It is the District’s responsibility to provide two schools from which you may choose. Under the NCLB Act, school choice is limited to a choice of another public school, including charter schools.
![Page 30: No Child Left Behind (NCLB) Public School Choice The School District Of Palm Beach County May 2011.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032723/56649d085503460f949da1e1/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)

and sisters in the same school; however, due to prioritization requirement, brothers and sisters may be placed at different schools.

Will my child always be transported to the transfer school?• Possibly. However, the District is no longer
required to provide transportation:• when the school your child transfers from is no longer
a SINI school (either by making AYP two years in a row or by becoming a non-Title I school);
or • if you move within a new school’s boundaries and that
school is not Title I or does not offer PSC transfer to the school your child transferred to.
