  • New open enrollment applications will be taken from April 1 – 30.

Documents:

Approval will be based on the number of available seats at the elementary and middle schools and the criteria listed below for approval. Numbers are subject to change based on new families moving in to the district.

Approved applications are good for one year.   Cross boundary applications may be obtained at the schools, on the Oak Ridge School’s website or from the Pupil Services Department.  Tuition applications may be obtained on the Oak Ridge Schools website or from the Pupil Services Department in the School Administration Building.

We are hoping this designated application period will help you in submitting your applications on time, facilitate enrollment issues at the schools prior to the August start date, and make you aware of your child’s application status.

All students applying for cross boundary and tuition must meet the following criteria for approval:

  • The student must be in good standing in attendance – no excessive absences, tardies or early dismissals
  • The student must be in good standing in academics – no failing grades
  • The student must be in good standing in behavior – no noted discipline referrals, suspensions or expulsions
  • Parents must be supportive of their child’s educational environment by contributing positively with the educational team at the school.
