TUSD NO. 4 OPEN ENROLLMENT
a rated
If a student resides out of the boundaries of a school, or out of the boundaries of the school district, an open enrollment application must be completed. Forms may be obtained at any school in the district or may be downloaded here.

Applications for open enrollment are accepted year round. If applying for the following school year, the school will notify the parent/guardian of a decision.
 
Consideration for acceptance of an open enrollment application is based on:
  • The physical capacity of the school building and classrooms
  • Availability of staff (i.e. administrators, teachers, other certificated employees, related service providers)
  • Capacity in relevant special programs
  • Availability of other resources

  2. The application is given to the School Principal for review.
  3. The parent/guardian will be notified on the results of the application either by the schools Principal or the Registrar.

Approved Applications

  1. If your application is approved, parent/guardian will need to respond within 5 business days to confirm the acceptance.  Failure to do so will result in your space being offered to the next applicant.
  2. You must complete our Online Registration process by visiting our website at www.thatcherud.org.
  3. Once the Online Registration has been submitted the schools Registrar will contact you.

Denied Applications

Applications placed on the Waiting List

  1. If the grade you have applied for capacity is full, you will be contacted with the option to be placed on a Waiting List.  If this option is for you, you will be placed on the wait list based off the timestamp on your Open Enrollment Application.  When space becomes available in the grade level, you will be contacted by the schools Registrar.  You will then need to complete the school's Online Registration.
