The
Board of Education endorses the neighborhood school concept and makes
many decisions based on student population within the attendance areas
of residence. The Board recognizes, however, that resident students may
wish to attend a school or participate in the program located in an area
other than that of their assigned school. Therefore, students shall be
allowed to attend any school or participate in any program of their choice
on a space available, first-come, first-serve basis.

In implementing the open enrollment program, the district is not required
to:
- Make alterations in the structure of a requested school or make alterations
to the arrangement or function of rooms within a requested school.
- Establish
and offer any particular program in a school if such program is not
offered currently in such school.
- Alter or waive any established eligibility criteria
for participation in a particular program including age requirements,
course prerequisites and required levels of performance.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this policy, a student may be assigned
outside the attendance area by mutual agreement of the principals in the
special interest of the student and/or school.
