What this document actually says
This policy, last revised April 16, 2024, allows children of Reed Union School District employees who live outside district boundaries to attend district schools. Eligibility requires: certificated staff must be full-time (1.0 FTE) permanent employees; classified staff must be permanent with 2+ years service, working 10-11 months at 30+ hours weekly, or 12-month full-time employees. Parents must provide transportation and arrange childcare beyond school hours. Once approved, no annual renewal is needed while employed full-time. If enrollment reaches 1,400 students, new transfers may be denied, though siblings of current students are grandfathered. When spaces are limited, employee seniority determines priority. The Superintendent approves/denies requests; denials can be appealed to the Board of Trustees.
What this means for your family
If you work full-time for Reed Union but live outside the district, your children may attend district schools without yearly reapplication. You must provide transportation and childcare. If you leave your full-time position, your child must leave the district. Admission may be denied if enrollment exceeds 1,400 students, except for siblings already enrolled. This helps recruit and retain quality staff.
