Student Transportation for active-duty military families

Effective April 9, Ohio law requires that all public school districts, regardless of their open enrollment policy, accept students for open enrollment if their parent or guardian is an active duty military member stationed in Ohio.  For more information, visit the Enrollment Options for Students from Active Duty Military Families webpage. 

Students that are open-enrolled under the new law must be provided transportation services under RC  3313.981 in the same as any other interdistrict-enrolled students.
