How Do I Withdraw My Child From School?

Parents should contact the school registrar two weeks before transfer to have the child’s records prepared.

Grades will be given if the child has been in school for a minimum of 15 school days.

Unofficial copies of student’s records are available to the sponsor upon written request. Official transcripts must be sent directly from DDESS – Puerto Rico to the receiving school or university.

Students who withdraw on or after the official cut-off date (May 15, 2009) will be issued final grades, if all requirements have been met.

On the date of withdrawal, the sponsor/parent must come to the school and personally obtain the official withdrawal from the office.

Each teacher must sign off denoting that books and other school materials have been returned.
