When you withdraw from Denton ISD to enroll in another Texas public school district or charter school, the receiving school will request your student’s records through a state system titled, Texas Records Exchange (TREx). It is not necessary to hand carry your student’s records to the new school, TREx will electronically transmit your student’s records to their new campus. If you withdraw in-person, you will receive a withdrawal packet to take to the receiving campus.

When you withdraw from Denton ISD to enroll in a school outside of Texas or a private school, the new school will usually request records by mail, phone, email, or fax. Once that request is received at the campus, your child’s records will be sent to the receiving school.

According to the Texas Education Agency, homeschool students should be withdrawn by school officials when the school receives written notice, either by 1) signing a homeschool withdrawal form (Exhibit J), or 2) by providing a letter of withdrawal including the following components:

Homeschool Withdrawal Letters must include:

1) The homeschool start date

2) A statement that the student will be homeschooled

3) A handwritten signature from the parent or legal guardian

The Exhibit J or homeschool withdrawal letter, with all three elements are to be returned, either in-person or by email, to the campus Registrar. The homeschool Exhibit J can be found below.

If Denton ISD does not receive a Request for Records or Verification of Enrollment (VOE) from another school/district, the district is required, under compulsory attendance laws, to implement the truancy process with the student and/or the parent. This may include a referral to truancy court if the student receives unexcused or unverified absences for 10 or more days in a 6-month period or is not enrolled in school or another educational setting within 3 days after withdrawing from Denton ISD.

Additional records' requests may be made at any time by the parent, legal guardian of the student, or by the student legally deemed an adult. Records may be requested in writing by completing the correct form below and submitting it to the registrar at the campus from which you are requesting records. 

In order to ensure a timely response, please note that requests made during the summer months will be subject to campus personnel’s available duty days.
