McKinney opens select schools to out-of-district enrollment
Select McKinney ISD schools will have open enrollment for students outside of the district. The Choose McKinney ISD program was approved by the district’s board of trustees Jan. 21. The program allows kindergarten through eighth grade students who do not live within McKinney ISD’s boundaries to apply for enrollment online. “We welcome both new and returning families to choose McKinney ISD,” said Melanie Raleeh, deputy superintendent of school leadership. The approach There are several reasons the district is launch- ing Choose McKinney ISD, Raleeh said. The program will help retain and attract students, and ensure financial stability for the district. Schools across the district have open seats which can be filled through the program, allowing the district to receive additional state funding as McKinney ISD is currently operating with a multi-million dollar budget shortfall.
