Must a local school district enroll all nonresidents who submit applications by the deadline date?
A6: The answer depends upon the approach taken by the local school district. If the local school district chose unlimited enrollment then the answer is YES. If, however, the local school district offered only limited enrollment opportunities, then the answer is NO. In this case, if the number of applications exceeds the number of spaces specified, the district must use a random draw system to select the applicants who will be offered enrollment.
