Transferring Athletes

If you are enrolling a student who wishes to participate in athletics, it is critical to inform the guidance office upon registration that your student is an athlete and will need a transfer form completed.

When a student athlete enrolls at Fort Knox Middle High School after they have begun their high school career in another high school in our state or any other location, an athletic transfer must be completed. The transfer paperwork must be completed before a student may participate in any sport, and can only be done when the student enrolls at his/her new school. This paperwork requires our athletic director to verify if the student has any varsity experience at a previous high school. If there was previous varsity experience, then the form must be forwarded to the Kentucky High School Athletic Association for a final ruling. This process generally takes about two weeks to complete.
