Track Change

In order to advance educational tracks you must submit a track change request.  Track changes are due to the SAU9 office no later than November 1st
(Dec. 1st for BEA), for a change to occur in the following school year.

At the start of the school year, if you have earned the correct number of credits for a change, you will be moved to the appropriate track. (Official transcripts must be submitted to the Superintendent's Office by October 1 of that year to confirm credits earned.)  

If you have not yet earned enough credits at that time, but do so by February 1 of the next year, you may request the change to take place at that time.  However, you must have submitted the initial request by the November 1 or December 1 date of the prior year depending upon your contract. Mid-year track changes will be pro-rated to the effective date.
