The Child Welfare and Attendance (CWA) department promotes school enrollment, good school attendance, school transfer, and assistance for foster, homeless, and recent immigrant students & their families. CWA also supports school-based counseling services for students.
Are you experiencing housing instability? We may be able to help your child(ren). Please complete our questionnaire.
Our primary goal is to support students so they attend school every day, on time, and learn the skills and abilities to thrive the entire school year.
Please visit our Student Transfer Page for information on student transfers between schools within HUSD or between school districts.
School transfer requests may be submitted in person to the CWA office at the Family Resource HUB, via InformedK12 under 2025-2026 Special Circumstance Transfer.
If you are checking on the status of a transfer, email us at studenttransfer@husd.us please make sure you provide the following information in order for us to respond/process appropriately to your email.
- Name of the student
- Where the transfer is from
- The requested school
