Open Enrollment for 2020-2021
Many questions have arisen regarding Open Enrollment from current Odyssey families and interested families. Please read through the following information carefully. Open Enrollment for the 2020-2021 school year begins February 3rd. The application will be available starting February 3rd, the link is provided below.
Enrollment Process for 2020-2021
Current Resident Families: In July, information will be sent out to families on how to complete the online registration process. This is the process where you verify and make any updates to your contact information. Please know that you do not have to partake in open enrollment.
Current Open Enrolled Families: Please do not complete the open enrollment process again to our district. The best part about open enrollment is that you only have to complete it one year. If you do complete the open enrollment process again for Odyssey we will ask that you please log back in to DPI and remove your application to help prevent duplication. In July, you will get information on how to complete the online registration process. This is the process where you verify and make any updates to your contact information.
New Interested Open Enrolled Families: Please complete the open enrollment process between February 3 and April 30. Once the open enrollment window is complete we will contact you with the next steps.
We will continue to accept new students for THIS school year (2019-2020), that is done through the 'Alternate Open Enrollment' form. If there are any questions, please contact us.
