OPEN ENROLLMENT 2023-2024
The inter-district public school open enrollment program allows parents to apply for their children to attend a public school in a school district other than the one in which they reside. The regular open enrollment application period for the 2023-24 school year begins on February 6, 2023, and ends at 4:00 pm on April 28, 2023. The best way to apply is online, the online application is available at https://dpi.wi.gov/open-enrollment during the application period.
Once a pupil is attending a nonresident school district under open enrollment, the pupil may continue to attend that district without re-application. Lake Country School students do not need to re-apply for open enrollment until they are ready to attend Arrowhead High School or another school district.
INCOMING NEW 4 & 5 YEAR-OLDS
We are searching for ALL three and four year old future students in the Lake Country District. If you have, or are aware of a three or four year old in the district who will be 4 or 5 years old by September 1st, 2023, please have the parents contact Amy Adkins at adkinsa@mylakecountryschool.org or call (262) 367-3606 ext. 115. If you have children attending Lake Country School already, please don't assume we know about all younger siblings. We want to make sure we contact every eligible child before our Open House in March!

DRESS FOR THE WINTER WEATHER
During the winter months we are committed to ensuring that our students have the opportunity for outdoor recess whenever possible, but we first make sure all students are safe from severe weather conditions. Please make sure your child comes to school with a winter coat, hat, and gloves/mittens. This includes all students. All students are required to go outside for recess unless indoor recess has been communicated. If you are having difficulty obtaining cold weather clothing please reach out to the school. We are here to help. MORE INFORMATION ON RECESS
Students who are dropped off in the morning, should not be dropped off until 7:50 a.m. which is the time students may enter the building. MORE INFORMATION ON PICK-UP/DROP-OFF
