Additional notes about nonresident eligibility:
- For new nonresident families, applications will be accepted only for those grade levels with posted openings and only within the stated application timeframe. Applicants must further meet these two requirements:
- Resident students attending a Washington Township school in grades Kindergarten through 12th grade who subsequently move outside the district within the state of Indiana may be approved to continue in attendance. This process is initiated by contacting the school social worker or school counselor.
- A nonresident student whose behavior violates the Washington Township Schools student code of conduct and results in formal disciplinary action or the student has a history of unexcused absences, may be denied the option to return.
On rare occasions status may be denied for a following school year based on increased resident enrollment. However, these students then receive priority placement at another school with available space at their grade level.
