Open Enrollment for 2024-2025
During their January 22, 2024 meeting, the New Berlin School Board declared that there are zero regular education open enrollment seats available for school year 2024-2025 in all grades K-12. (Although some spaces may be available for special education open enrollment students, there must be a regular education open enrollment seat available to a student before we can offer them a special education seat.)
Policy 5114 - Open Enrollment was not changed thereby continuing to guarantee those students currently attending in the SDNB and siblings of currently attending SDNB students. (This applies to K-12 students currently attending in the SDNB via tuition waiver or those moving on or before "3rd Friday" 2024 (September 20, 2024).) Students currently open-enrolled need not reapply. (Please note: The Early Learning Program (ELP) is not a traditional 4K program; therefore, current non-resident ELP students cannot be considered "currently attending students.")
The online open-enrollment application period is February 5 through April 30, 2024. For further information concerning Open Enrollment, or to access the online application during the application window, visit the Department of Public Instruction website or contact DPI at (888) 245-2732.
Parents may apply to up to three (3) non-resident districts.
Parents are responsible for transportation.
PLEASE NOTE:
New Berlin does NOT have a traditional 4K program. For children to open enroll into a 4K program, state statutes require both districts to offer the same program; therefore, SDNB-resident applications to other districts must be denied.
