Open Enrollment

How does a parent/guardian open enroll a child?

Open Enrollment is the process by which parents/guardians residing in an Iowa district may enroll their children into another Iowa school district under the terms and conditions of Iowa Code section 282.18 and 281--Iowa Administrative Code 17.

The open enrollment form and open enrollment handbook are available via the Department of Education's website. The open enrollment form is also available here.

The completed form must be filed with both the receiving district and the district of residence. Please send a copy of the completed form to Randi Lehman at rlehman@acgcschools.org.

If the district of residence has a desegregation plan, the application must be filed with only the resident district.
