 What’s New to the Open Enrollment Process This Year? 

    To provide better service to our families, the Open Enrollment Office has made three minor changes for the 2012-2013 Open Enrollment season beginning this November.  Anticipated benefits of these changes are faster turnaround times, more complete information sooner, and a simplified efficient process. 

1.    BVSD will now send a “Notification of Acceptance” so parents don’t have to remember to accept  a seat they applied for or risk losing it.  Be sure to tell us if you want to decline a seat, if the situation has changed for your family and you would like to keep your student(s) at the current school.

    

2.   We have eliminated the second lottery as an unnecessary step to ensure that parents will not have to wait weeks for notification about waitlist placement. Instead, after the lottery we’ll move to our waitlist period a month and a half earlier than last year.  By early February we can provide a waitlist position for any student that did not get a seat in a school they applied to, so you can make school-based decisions earlier.

    

3.  We have improved overall efficiency by removing the fourth choice. On average, only 10 seats a year district-wide fill via a fourth choice application in Open Enrollment.
