Enrollment

BVSD Enrollment Website
The BVSD Open Enrollment Portal window opened on November 1, 2024 for the next school year (2025-2026)

Families may choose to enroll their students in a school outside their neighborhood as long as there is sufficient programming, staff, and space at the school. Families residing outside the BVSD boundaries are welcome to open enroll their children in this district. Open Enrollment begins in November for the next school year (beginning the following August). 

What is Open Enrollment? Open Enrollment is a process that families may use to acquire permission for their student(s) to attend a school other than their designated household neighborhood school.

Compared to grade school, both the social scene and the academics are more complicated in middle school. So it’s more important than ever for kids to feel comfortable in their school’s culture. Here are some factors to consider as you decide which middle school is right for your child: 

  • How is the school environment?
  • What is the staff like?
  • Does it feel right?
  • Does it work for me?
  • What are the academics like?
