    Where to Apply

    The CD program is offered in all primary/elementary schools in the district. Applications must be completed at the primary or elementary school in your attendance area even if you plan to apply for a transfer.  The HCS School Finder can help you locate your school.

    Transfer Requests 

    Parents who wish to apply for a transfer request to a school outside of their attendance area are encouraged to apply early before the selection process is complete.  Parents may apply for a transfer request between April 8 and June 30.  Please be sure to select 'CD' for the grade level on any tranfer requests for the Child Development program.  If you tranfer request is approved, you must still have your child screened at the school in your attendance area.
