Open Enrollment

Student with hand raised in the air

Register at any Marana school, no matter where you live. 
Marana schools offers many choices in education for students and their families. Open enrollment begins in December of the prior school year and applications are approved on an ongoing basis. While most schools in the District will have space for open enrollment students, some grade levels or campuses will have closed enrollment because of growing student populations.

Apply for Open Enrollment

  • Open Enrollment is for students who wish to attend an MUSD school where they do NOT live in the school’s attendance boundaries.
  • Only students who reside outside of a school’s attendance boundaries need to apply for open enrollment.
  • A student who currently attends a District school through open enrollment does not have to complete an open enrollment application for the subsequent school year as long as they remain at the same school.
