The following was issued by Superintendent Everett V. Olsen. If you have news, email news@westfordcat.org.
Dear Parents and Guardians:
The Westford School Committee, through its Open Enrollment policy, provides K-8 parents and legal guardians the opportunity to request a student’s enrollment in a Westford school outside of their district assigned school. Such requests are generally made only when a parent/legal guardian feels that enrollment in a school, other than their assigned school, will best meet the needs of the child.
Requests for Open Enrollment must be made via a formal application completed by the parent or legal guardian. Applications will be accepted on a “first come, first serve” basis and must be completed in person in the Superintendent’s Office at 23 Depot Street. Applications are available from May 1 to June 30 (Monday throughFriday) from 8:30 to noon and from 1:00 to 3:30.
Please note that an application for Open Enrollment does not guarantee that a request will be honored. Student enrollment and class sizes are important factors in determining if a request may be granted; therefore notifications will not be made until August, after summer registration takes place.
Additional Open Enrollment information is available online at http://westfordk12.us/pages/Registration/openenroll or at school offices. If you have a specific question, please contact Nina Mangan at nmangan@westfordk12.us.
Sincerely,
Everett V. Olsen, Jr.
Superintendent of Schools
