Under certain circumstances, state law permits your child to continue to attend school in a school district even after you move out of the district. The law covers three circumstances in which your child may, if the requirements are met, continue to attend school even after you are no longer a resident in that school district:

• When you move out of a school district during a school year and wish your child to finish the school year in that district (note: you must apply in February for Open Enrollment to continue in the upcoming year)

• When you move out of a school district after the first Monday in February (too late to apply for open enrollment) and wish your child to finish the school year in that district, and to continue to attend that school district in the upcoming year if desired

• When your child has attained senior status while a resident of the district and wishes to attend the district in his or her senior year (“senior rule”)

If you move out of the district and wish to apply to have your child continue attending, you must fill out a Request for Tuition Waiver Due to Move form (below) and submit it to the District Office, 1903 Bartlett Avenue, as soon as possible after your move (preferably within two weeks). For more information, call Joyce Orth at 839-6032.

The form is not needed if the "senior rule" applies. Please contact Joyce to confirm eligibility.
