Open Enrollment

Ohio law, along with the Hillsdale Board of Education board policy, allows parents/guardians from other Ohio school districts to apply and enroll their children in the Hillsdale Local School District rather than their district of residence by completing an open enrollment application and being approved by the Hillsdale District.

Such enrollment will be free of any tuition obligation, provided that all provisions of the Hillsdale District's policy and all procedures outlined in the administrative guidelines are met, including capacity limits by building, grade level, and educational programs, and maintaining appropriate racial balances in each school.
