Change of Address & Residency Verification

 
Change of Address
When you change your residence address, you are required to inform the District. This should be done within two weeks of your move.
  • For moves within Albany, this allows the District to properly communicate with you and keeps school records accurate.

  • If you move out of Albany, students retain the right to finish the school year at their current Albany school. For the school years following an out-of-district move, families must apply to their home district for a release, and must apply to AUSD through the interdistrict transfer process. AUSD is committed to educational continuity for all our students, and prefers to retain students in our schools. The Enrollment Office can advise you regarding the process, but it is important to know that without a release from your district of residence, AUSD cannot enroll your student(s). 

  • If you would like to withdraw your student(s) from Albany schools, please fill out this School Exit Form.
