The Intradistrict Enrollment Option will be available only for Medina City Schools’ students who wish to attend an elementary or middle school other than the one they are assigned within the school district during the 2023-2024 school year. This option is based on enrollment numbers, space, and staff availability. Class assignments are made only to those grades that are at the District class size less one.

Intradistrict Enrollment requests will be accepted through the Medina City Schools website beginning Saturday, April 1, 2023, by visiting www.medinabees.org and clicking on the Student Registration tab in the green bar at the top of the website, then to the link to Intradistrict Enrollment. Requests will be accepted via online submission only from Saturday, April 1, 2023, through Thursday, May 25, 2023, for the 2023-2024 school year. Parents will be notified in writing of their child’s acceptance/non-acceptance no later than the second week of August 2023. Assignments may be revoked in reverse order of date received (last in, first out) if enrollment figures no longer allow for additional classroom space.

Parents whose children are approved for this Intradistrict Enrollment Option are responsible for transporting their own children to and from the school.

As a matter of information, Medina City Schools does not allow students from other school districts to enroll in the Medina City School District under the Intradistrict Enrollment Option.
