3. Written notification of acceptance or denial will be given to the parent/legal guardian as follows:
   1. For applications received during the Early Enrollment period—by March 31.

   3. For applications submitted during the late enrollment period for admission in the current school year—within two weeks after receipt of the application.
4. Each application will be considered on an individual basis based on available space by building, grade, class, or program.
5. Applications may be denied, or revoked, to those who have committed serious infraction of the law or have been guilty of chronic misbehavior which would, if it were to continue, endanger persons or property, cause serious disruption in the school, or place unreasonable burdens on school staff.

11. The parent/student is responsible for transportation to and from the requested school, except as provided in Utah Code 53G-6-405(3)(b) which allows students to ride on established routes on a space-available basis, providing no additional costs will be incurred by the district.
