Open Enrollment Tuition

The amount of open enrollment tuition for the 2013-2014 school year for a regular education student is $6,001, which is the state cost per pupil from the previous fiscal year. For a student served pursuant to an IEP, open enrollment tuition is calculated on actual costs of special education rather than the prior year's state cost per pupil amount. Open enrollment tuition is billed and paid on a quarterly basis. Under special circumstances that terminate or suspend open enrollment status, it is necessary to prorate tuition in a quarter on a per diem basis.
