Summary

Trustees approved two separate open-enrollment motions covering new and continuing students enrolling into and out of Merrill Area Public Schools.

The Merrill Area School District Board approved two separate open-enrollment motions on May 14 covering new and continuing students both entering and leaving the district.

In the first motion, Mike moved to approve 259 new students open-enrolling to Merrill Area Public Schools and to approve 656 continuing open-enrolled students; a second by Paul carried. Later, Mike moved a separate motion to approve 22 new students indicating open enrollment out of Maps and to approve 208 continuing open-enrolled students leaving the district; Amber seconded and the motion carried.

Board materials list the enrollments as agenda items forwarded by the Curriculum, Technology and Pupil Services committee. The motions were voice votes and recorded in the minutes as approved; no individual roll-call tallies were given in the meeting transcript.

The approvals were procedural authorizations of open-enrollment placements for the upcoming school year. Board members did not debate individual student eligibility or the receiving/sending district arrangements during the meeting.
