FAQs
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. These are referred to as non-resident districts.
Students who may open enroll:
~ Any student in 5-year-old kindergarten to grade 12.
~ Prekindergarten, early childhood education and 4-year-old kindergarten
~ Only if child's resident district offers the same type of program, and
~ Only if child is eligible for the program in the resident school district.
Parents must:
~ Submit an application to the non-resident school district during the regular application period.
~ A separate application must be submitted for each child.
~ May request specific school or program, but assignment to requested school or program is not guaranteed.
~ May apply to a maximum of three nonresident school districts per school year.
It is recommended that you apply for open enrollment through the online application process. You may also download and print a paper copy of form PI9410 by visiting the Department of Public Instruction website and hand deliver to nonresident district.
