Wausau district keeps general open enrollment open; special-education nonresident spaces restricted for 2025–26
Summary
The committee recommended approval of regular and special-education nonresident spaces for 2025–26: general-education open enrollment remains open, while special-education open enrollment is closed because of limited capacity and the need to contract specialized services.
The Education Operations Committee on Dec. 16 recommended that the full board approve the district's nonresident-space determinations for 2025–26. The presenter, identified in the agenda as Miss Cartage, explained that general-education open enrollment remains open without limits, consistent with past years, while special-education open enrollment is closed because the district lacks capacity and must contract for specialized services such as occupational and physical therapy.
The committee moved to recommend approval of the regular and special-education nonresident spaces as presented and the motion carried.
Next steps: The recommendation will be forwarded to the full board for final action as part of routine annual enrollment determinations.
