Bay District Schools has officially opened its School Choice Open Enrollment window for the 2026–2027 school year. The application period runs from March 2 through April 1, giving families the opportunity to explore and apply for programs that best meet their student’s interests and academic goals.
During this time, parents can log in to the Parent Portal to complete the “BDS School Choice Application 26–27,” which can be found under their student’s name in the drop-down menu. Students must be actively enrolled in Bay District Schools prior to submitting a School Choice application.
The acceptance window will take place April 16–23, and families are asked to be patient as applications are reviewed after submission.
