Welcome to Eau Claire Area School District

Public School Open Enrollment: February 1 - 19, 2010


Wisconsin residents in grades 5K -12 may apply to attend school in a school district other than the one in which they live. For example: a child that lives in the Altoona School District could apply to attend the Eau Claire Area School District (ECASD). Students in pre-kindergarten may participate in limited circumstances; parents should call Sandy LaValley at 852-3003 to find out if their preschool-aged children qualify. Students who are currently attending the ECASD through open enrollment do not need to reapply unless they are entering 9th grade (Board Policy #424).
 
The open enrollment application for the 2010-11 school year is February 1-19, 2010. The Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction will no longer provide paper application forms to school districts. An on-line application will be available to the public beginning Monday, February 1, and closing at 4:00 pm on Friday, February 19. The website is at: http://dpi.wi.gov/sms/psctoc.html.
 
A computer will be available at the Eau Claire Area School District Office for families who do not have access to a computer or would like assistance in completing the on-line application. It will be located in the office of the Executive Director of Administration, Room 134, 500 Main Street, Eau Claire, and available Monday through Friday from 8:00 am – 4:00 pm (Feb. 1 – 19, 2010).
 
Have you moved outside of the Eau Claire School District this year? If so, you need to complete a Tuition Waiver form. Contact Sandy LaValley for more information at 852-3003.
