Well, this is actually a little complicated to answer since the question is a little to vague.
So let me see if I can break this down:
Let's talk about the long shot scenario:
You are the custodial parent and you want your child to attend school in the same school district as the non-custodial parent; you are now going to have your child move in with the non-custodial parent so they can attend said school. So, the answer would be yes, you will have to give up primary custody of your child in order for them to live in the non-custodial parents home. This is what could happen:
a. Adjust custody order to reflect joint custody; have visitation rights. Just understand that whoever has more "nights" with the child each year will be considered the custodial parent. As a non-custodial parent, you could be obligated to pay child support.
b. Adjust custody order to reflect that non-custodial parent will have primary custody of your child. They will now be the custodial parent and you, as a non-custodial parent, may be obligated to provide child support.
Easy scenario:
You just want to move to a new school district, and as the custodial parent your child naturally moves with you. Then, no, you do not have to give up custody of your child. What you must do is provide the non-custodial parent with your change of address as well as a new home phone number if it changes.

Do you have to give your child's school a copy of the custody order?
Your query begs the question of why a parent would not want the school to have the custody order in their records. A prudent school system will require a copy of any custody order for liability reasons. The school needs to know who has legal custody so it will know who it can release the child to, who should be contacted in an emergency, who has the legal power to designate who can take the child when the custodial parent cannot and who has the legal power to sign school documents. The custodial parent should always make certain the school knows who has legal custody so the child will not be released to the non-custodial parent in a contentious situation. The child should know who can and cannot pick them up at school.
Can a custodial parent with only joint physical custody sue a school district on behalf of his child?
No. Physical custody does not give you the right to bring a lawsuit on behalf of the child. The parent(s) with legalcustody must be the one to sue.
