Open/Closed Schools
Open and Closed Schools List for Out of Area and Out of District Registrations for the 2026-27 school year.
Out of Area and Out of District registration procedures for English-language track schools have been updated in accordance with Policy 521 Admission and Registration.
Process for OOA/OOD attendance:
The board will maintain a list of schools that are either ‘open’ or ‘closed’ to new OOA/OOD registrations.
Schools are reviewed each year and the list is updated and posted prior to the December break.
Only schools designated as ‘open’ for the coming school year can accept new OOA/OOD registrations.
New OOA/OOD registrations can only be submitted during a limited period of time during the month of January.
New OOA/OOD registrations must be completed by the last Friday in January (January 30, 2026).
Students registering at a school that is OOA or OOD may remain at the OOA/OOD school until completion of grades at that school, rather than having to reapply every year.
Transportation is NOT provided for OOA or OOD students.
We encourage students to attend their designated home school but do understand that there may be situations that lead to a request for students to attend a different school.
Steps for families:
Families interested in having their child/student register to attend a school other than their designated home school starting in the 2026-2027 school year must complete a registration form at a school designated as ‘open’ to OOA/OOD in January, prior to end of day on January 30, 2026.
Following the registration period in January of 2026, all schools are closed to new OOA/OOD registrations. The next opportunity for OOA/OOD registrations is January, 2027, based on schools that are designated as ‘open’ at that time.
Schools designated as ‘closed’ do not accept OOA/OOD registrations.
The Open/Closed Schools List Report (below) includes the list of schools that are open and closed to out of area and out of district registration for the 2026-27 school year. This list will be updated yearly and presented in the annual Long Term Accommodation Plan, which will be posted on the website by the end of December each year as required by the Policy 521.
