DES MOINES — The state legislature’s decision to reinstate a deadline for open enrollment in Iowa schools will take effect next week.

The open enrollment deadline will be March 1st of each year, starting next Monday. This was the same deadline that had been eliminated in June 2022.

Open enrollment is still available for all students now through June 30. Anyone wanting to open enroll in a local school district must submit their documentation by the end of the week. You may contact your local school district to see when the last day their offices will be open to file documentation.
