26 states let districts charge tuition to out-of-boundary students - should you do so?
Report: 26 states let districts charge tuition to out-of-boundary students
Dive Brief:
- Charging tuition to students who attend schools out of their school or district boundaries is permitted in 26 states, and some districts in those states charge families tens of thousands of dollars for out-of-boundary transfer, according to a report from the Reason Foundation, a nonprofit Libertarian think tank.
- According to the analysis, five states — Arizona, Florida, Kansas, Oklahoma and Utah — have used four of the five recommended practices by the Reason Foundation for open enrollments, including allowing students to transfer to any public school within and across districts.
- Decreases in student enrollment during the COVID-19 pandemic may cause some districts to consider shifts in enrollment policies, including ways to better meet enrollment goals that align with school capacity limits. The foundation said one of the reasons for rejecting transfer requests is if the desired school has few available student seats.

Mentors.net - a Professional Development Resource
Mentors.net was founded in 1995 as a professional development resource for school administrators leading new teacher induction programs. It soon evolved into a destination where both new and student teachers could reflect on their teaching experiences. Now, nearly thirty years later, Mentors.net has taken on a new direction—serving as a platform for beginning teachers, preservice educators, and
other professionals to share their insights and experiences from the early years of teaching, with a focus on integrating artificial intelligence. We invite you to contribute by sharing your experiences in the form of a journal article, story, reflection, or timely tips, especially on how you incorporate AI into your teaching
practice. Submissions may range from a 500-word personal reflection to a 2,000-word article with formal citations.
