Due to the updated school calendar and the various methods of instruction occurring during the 2020-2021 school year, the application window for Controlled Open Enrollment for the 2021-2022 school year has been postponed from January 2021 until March 2021. In March, the District will release the list of open schools, number of available seats, and the application process.

The window for submitting an application for Controlled Open Enrollment for Clay County School District is now closed.

Clay County School District strives to provide parents with an opportunity to choose the desired school for their children. In addition to the established attendance zone, Special Pupil Requests due to hardship and career academies, the Clay County School District will provide additional options for school assignment based on Controlled Open Enrollment in accordance with Florida Statute 1002.31.

Controlled Open Enrollment (COE) provides parents and legal guardians of children and youth entering grades K-12 the opportunity to seek enrollment in a school other than the zoned school of attendance. Under this statute, parents/legal guardians currently residing in any school district in the State of Florida may select schools from a list identified by the Clay County School District as having available seats based upon published guidelines.
