Open Enrollment

Parents should apply during the open enrollment application period beginning in February for the following school year. The open enrollment application period for the 2026-27 school year is February 2 - April 30, 2026 at 4:00 pm.

DPI’s online application is the preferred method to apply. This form is accessible only during the application period from a link on the main page of the open enrollment web site. Once the online application is submitted, it is automatically sent to the applicable school districts. Paper forms are available, though discouraged unless the parent is unable to submit an online application.
