Boone County Schools’ Board Policy 09.11 states that students will attend the school that serves their area of residence.
Effective July 1, 2022, Kentucky implemented a new statute generated by the passage of HB563 during the 2021 General Assembly. Boone County Schools had to take actions to address the new law and subsequent new Board Policy (09.1222) resulting from this action. In accordance with the new statute, Boone County Schools will utilize the district’s Facility Plan to determine student population capacity at all of our school buildings. From the assessment of student population versus school student population capacity, Attendance Services will determine if a school is open or closed to accepting any student transfers regardless of reason.
Additional information regarding School Choice/Open Enrollment and the application can be found on the district website under “FOR PARENTS”.
Applications will be accepted November 15th 2023 through January 15th 2024.
Decisions will be emailed by June 15th 2024
Please be aware of the following:
1) Students must not be a discipline or truancy problem AND remain on track for promotion or face a transfer to his/her districted/resident home school.
