What is Open Enrollment?
Wisconsin's inter-district public school open enrollment program allows parents that live in the State of Wisconsin to apply for their children to attend other school districts in the State of Wisconsin other than the one in which they live. These are referred to as non-resident districts.  The resident and non-resident district needs to be in the State of Wisconsin.

Once your child has been approved and continues to attend the Viroqua Area School District through Open Enrollment, you do not have to re-apply every year.

Students who may open enroll
