FAQ's

What is Public School Open Enrollment?
Wisconsin’s inter-district public school open enrollment program allows parents to apply for their children to attend school districts other than the one in which they live.  Applications may be submitted to up to three nonresident school districts.

 

Who may participate in open enrollment? 
Any Wisconsin resident in 4K to grade 12 may apply participate in open enrollment.  Open enrollment for prekindergarten, 4-year-old kindergarten and early childhood education is only available if the child's resident school district offers the same type of program and only if the child eligible for that program is in the resident school district.

 

How and when may parents apply?
The open enrollment application period is a three-month time frame that begins February 5th and ends at 4:00 pm on April 30th. To read more information check out the details on the DPI Website.  For parents who have missed the regular application deadline for the 2024-25 school year you may submit alternative applications on or after July 1.
