Next Year Setup Information - Reminder
Posted on 11/02/2023 at 11:45

During the week of November 20, 2023, the IT Department will run a process to open the 2024-25 school year for scheduling. This process will articulate students to their next-year schools based on current school and grade level, neighborhood school, and boundary exception. PowerSchool will be accessible during the setup process and the new year will be available on November 27, 2023.

All non-resident students must have a current and accurate boundary exception before 4:00 PM on Friday, November 17, 2023. Non-resident students without a boundary exception will be articulated back to their neighborhood school.

Run the Non-Resident Students report to check for students without boundary exceptions. This report can be found in the Enrollment section of the sqlReports. Contact Neighborhood Schools and Enrollment Options for assistance with verifying boundary exceptions.
