Open Enrollment

Public School Open Enrollment allows parents/caregivers to apply for their children to attend a school district other than the one in which they reside. (This is not changing schools within the Sun Prairie Area School District boundaries). Parents/Caregivers can apply for open enrollment for the 2023-24 school year by completing the Alternative Open Enrollment Application. If you have questions, contact Lisa Sprindis at lasprin@sunprairieschools.org.

Open enrollment students are placed at a school based on their home address using this map. The elementary and middle schools “feed” into the two highs school, therefore, open enrollment students must attend elementary and middle schools that will feed into their appropriate high school based what side of the boundary line (east or west) their home address falls.

School Placement

All students are placed after Proof of Residency is provided. Failure to provide proof of residency will delay enrollment.

Students are placed according to residence address (per Board Policy JC, School Attendance Areas). To determine which school is assigned to your residential address, please see the School Attendance Area information.

The Sun Prairie Area School District has class size guidelines which help ensure the best educational programs throughout district schools. Placement of your child(ren) in a particular school will depend on the enrollment numbers and class sizes for your area school.

Enrollment FAQ's

Attendance Areas

All resident students in grades 6-12 will attend their new boundary school in the fall of 2022. School boundaries for grades 6-12 were recommended through the work of the Secondary Boundary and Bell Time Task Force and approved by the School Board. With these new boundaries, students are assigned to a school based on their home address regardless of which school they are currently attending. Given the large number of students needing to transition during this reconfiguration, students will not be allowed to remain at their current school for subsequent grades (a process typically called grandfathering). Grandfathering is not practical due to the magnitude of this shift in enrollment.

Voluntary Placement Process
Because it undermines several district priorities, the practice of Voluntary Placement has be phased out. Only families that have a current Voluntary Placed child will be allowed to apply for Voluntary Placement for an incoming younger sibling to attend the same school. Applications received by new families would not be accepted.
