Notification and Grandfathering Status Form

On December 3, 2020, the School Board approved elementary school boundary adjustments for five current elementary schools: Ashlawn, ASFS, McKinley, Taylor and Tuckahoe, effective for the 2021-22 school year. As part of this process, the School Board adopted grandfathering provisions for students.

Grandfathering Eligibility

The “grandfathering” provision approved by the School Board is available for:

  • Students at all schools who are currently in Grade 4 and would like to remain at their current elementary schools for Grade 5 in 2021-22, and
  • Current Grade K-4 students in Planning Unit 16061, which was reassigned to McKinley at the Reed site, who would like to continue at Tuckahoe through school year 2022-23.

Students who are eligible to remain at their current school due to grandfathering would still have the option to attend their newly-assigned neighborhood school in 2021-2022. Transportation is not provided to students who elect to remain at their current schools under the grandfathering provision. Students must be enrolled in APS as of Dec. 7, 2020 to be eligible for grandfathering.
