ARE NOT MAKING A PERMISSIVE TRANSFER. You will be ineligible to participate in varsity sport, one act play, or literary activities, if you are transferring from one school in the Griffin - Spalding County School System to another Griffin - Spalding County School System on a permissive transfer. The student will be ineligible to participate for one (1) calendar year from the date of enrollment. A permissive transfer is defined as an allowance by a local board of education for student and/or parents to choose a school to attend without regard to the location of residence. A student transferring from member school to member school on a permissive transfer is considered a migrant student. GHSA 1.67 (a) p.21
