What to do if my son is a senior in a school district that I just moved out of and they denied him to finish out his senior year there?
I was wondering how, and would it be legal, to switch gardianship temporarily to his aunt in the district without having to go through the court system?

The matterthat you are writing about is an administrative matter within the shool district that your son was attending. I suggest that the best way to handle the situation is for you to consult with an attorney that practices in the area of education law for guidance.
One option is for you to have your son reside with his aunt who is "in district" where the high school where he was attending on a day to day basis. An attorney can draw up a temporary guardianship agreement between you and the aunt as to your son for such a purpose.
