Out-of-county students may be welcome
Placeholder Image
Warren County may be going toward an open border policy when the School Board votes later this month to lift restrictions on out-of-county students attending local schools.Under the proposed change in policy, which passed on first reading by the Warren County Board of Education, the county would stop requiring out-of-county students to have a sibling attending Warren County Schools in order to attend. Striking this requirement would basically mean the local school system would be open to all students provided the director of schools in the county in which they live approves the transfer.Director of Schools Bobby Cox said opening the borders makes more sense now that there’s room in the local school system. Specifically, Cox pointed out that federal school dollars follow the student wherever they go.
