Open Enrollment
The Open Enrollment Program is Wisconsin's inter-district public school program, which allows students to attend school districts other than the one in which they live. Students are accepted by nonresident districts based on the availability of space at each grade level, and available seats are filled by random drawing. Parents are responsible for providing transportation. For more information regarding the open enrollment application process follow the link to WI DPI Public School Open Enrollment information.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the legislature has passed and the governor has signed 2019 Wisconsin Act 185. Included in this legislation is an extension of all statutory deadlines related to the regular open enrollment application period by approximately 30 days. The regular application period will now end at 4:00pm on May 29, 2020.
