Per Iowa Code 282.18 open enrolling is a process that allows parents/guardians residing in an Iowa school district the option of enrolling their children into another Iowa school district.  There are two deadlines (March 1 and September 1) that must be kept in mind when considering applying for open enrollment.

• March 1:  Deadline for regular open enrollment applications for the upcoming school year.  There may be exceptions to the March 1st deadline which are applications based on "good cause".

• September 1:  Deadline for prospective kindergarten students.

Open enrollment is currently open for all grades K-12.  The Board of Education will continue to evaluate annual open enrollment policies.  Open enrollment into the district is governed by:
