The following statement was released on April 4 by Westford Superintendent Everett V. Olsen.
The Westford School Committee, through its Open Enrollment policy, provides K-8 parents and legal guardians the opportunity to request a transfer of their child(ren) in a Westford school outside of their residency assigned school. Such requests are generally made only when a parent/legal guardian feels that enrollment in a school, other than their assigned school, will best meet the needs of the child.
Requests for Open Enrollment must be made via a formal application completed by the parent or legal guardian.
Applications will be accepted on a “first come, first serve” basis and must be completed, in person, in the Superintendent’s Office at 23 Depot Street.
Applications are available May 1 to June 30 (Monday through Friday) from 8:30 a.m. to 12 p.m. and from 1 to 3:30 p.m.
Please note that an application for Open Enrollment does not guarantee that a request will be honored. Student enrollment and class sizes are important factors in determining if a request may be granted; therefore notifications will not be made until August, after summer registration takes place.
Additional Open Enrollment information is available online at http://westfordk12.us/pages/Registration/openenroll or at school offices. If you have a specific question, please contact Nina Mangan at nmangan@westfordk12.us.
