Student Transfer Forms
San Benito CISD is accepting requests from Out-of-District Student Transfers for the 2022-2023 school year. Transfer requests are considered on a case-by-case basis and require approval of the Superintendent or his Designee. Criteria for approval include good grades, passing most recent STAAR, good attendance record, and no disciplinary issues. Completed application must be submitted to San Benito CISD PEIMS Department and will then be forwarded to Central Administration office. Superintendent and/or his Designee will review for final disposition. A phone call will then be made informing each applicant of disposition and at that time; you will be required to take all documents required by the campus with you at the time of registration. Documents submitted with the transfer application will not be sent to the campus. Further questions can be directed to Juan Garcia, District PEIMS Clerk, at 956-361-6180.
