Parents who are withdrawing their children from Earhart, are asked to notify the school at least 48 hours in advance to allow time for transfers to be created. We will need to know your new address and what school your child will be attending. Students are expected to turn in all text and library books prior to leaving.  Any outstanding obligations must be settled before a transfer is issued. 

Some teacher websites will require a cps email and password. Please use your child's information as needed.
