Mountainville Academy is committed to providing a smooth transition from our school to the school of your choice. The information contained on this page is designed to help facilitate this for your family, the school you will be attending, and Mountainville Academy.
In order for you to effectively withdraw your student from Mountainville Academy and enroll in another school, you will need to complete and submit a Mountainville Academy Withdrawal Form, which will serve as your notice of intent to enroll elsewhere. A withdrawal form may be filled out by a designated member of the office staff and signed by the parent/guardian to ensure that all school materials are returned and outstanding fees are settled, and that the parent/guardian has the same opportunity to collect their student’s personal belongings and reimbursable fees. Parents/guardians will also be afforded the opportunity to provide MA with input regarding the school through completion of an exit survey.
Mountainville Academy requests that parents notify the school as soon as they know their child(ren) will not be returning to the school for the following school year as it helps the administration make important and time-sensitive decisions regarding enrollment and staffing. Prior to the annual Lottery, families will be given the opportunity to commit to re-enroll their students or submit a withdrawal form for the next school year. Additionally, the State of Utah has designated deadlines for the transfer of students between schools. In accordance with statute, the parent or guardian of a student may withdraw their student(s) from Mountainville Academy for enrollment in another charter school or a school district by:
1. Submitting notice of intent to enroll their student(s) in the district of residence for the subsequent year to the student’s charter school no later than June 30 of the current school year
2. Submitting notice of intent to enroll their student(s) in another charter school for the subsequent school year to Mountainville Academy, together with a letter of acceptance from the proposed charter school of attendance, no later than June 30 of the current school year, or
3. Obtaining approval from both Mountainville Academy and the school district or charter school in which attendance is sought, if the parent desires to change their student(s) enrollment during the current school year, or after June 30.
A student shall be automatically withdrawn from Mountainville Academy after 10 consecutive days of unexcused absence. Mountainville Academy shall make every reasonable effort to notify the parent or legal guardian prior to the student’s 10th day of absence to provide opportunity for correction of attendance, or to receive notification of enrollment in another charter or public school. Unless attendance is corrected, or provisions have been made for enrollment of the student in another school, Mountainville Academy shall immediately notify the district of residence of the withdrawal, which shall enroll the withdrawn student in the resident district and take such additional steps as may be necessary to ensure compliance with laws governing school attendance.
All curriculum books, library books, and other materials belonging to Mountainville Academy must be returned upon withdrawal. If items are unavailable at that time, arrangements must be made for their return to the school or reimburse the school at replacement cost.
All outstanding fees or reimbursement for any materials which are lost or damaged by the student are due upon withdrawal; fees which are eligible to be reimbursed to the student’s parent/guardian may be returned via U.S. Mail within a reasonable amount of time.
All personal belongings should be removed from the school at the time of withdrawal, however if timing is not convenient or does not allow for the parent/guardian to retrieve the student’s belongings, arrangements may be made to do so at a later date.
Staff and teachers will treat the student and parent/guardian with professionalism and respect at all times. Comments and suggestions, both positive and negative, are important to the school’s goal of continual improvement and service. We encourage all parents/guardians to provide honest and constructive communication on the exit survey.
