Open Enrollment

You have a choice in your child's education! Open enrollment enables Arizona students to attend public elementary schools (grades K-8) or high schools (grades 9-12) outside their attendance areas or their districts in an effort to give them a choice in school selection.

Applications for Open Enrollment in PV Schools are accepted at the District Administrative Center October 1 (or first business day in October if October 1 falls on a Saturday or Sunday) to January 21 (or previous business day if January 21 falls on a Saturday or Sunday) each year*. All applicants will be notified of acceptance or denial in the spring.

*Out-of-district parents may submit open enrollment applications to the principal of the school they wish their child(ren) to attend if they missed the OE period. Principals will then notify parents of approval/denial or of waiting-list status as soon as they are able to determine space availability.

NOTE: At this time the following schools/grades are closed to open enrollment for the 2013-14 school year — Sonoran Sky Elementary: Grade 4; Copper Canyon Elementary: Grades 2, 4 and 5; and Pinnacle High School: All grades. (We can only accept / consider applications for siblings of PHS students currently enrolled in grades 9, 10 or 11.)
