TUITION

OPEN ENROLLMENT

Due to a change in Tennessee state law, starting with the 2022-23 school year, KCS students (including those residing within the City of Kingsport limits) may attend a KCS school other than the one to which they are currently zoned as long as space is available in the requested school/grade-level. 

 

The number of enrollment spaces available at each location is based on 2025-26 projected enrollment and school and grade-level capacities. School enrollment will be monitored during the Open Enrollment period and as a result, available seats may be adjusted to comply with state law.  If more requests are received than are available at a school/grade-level, a lottery will be held to determine enrollment placement.  Any students not selected during the lottery will be placed on a waiting list for potential enrollment.

NOTE: Open enrollment slots by location will be posted on April 21, 2025.

NOTE: Number of seats available will adjust as actual enrollment for the 2025-26 school year is finalized.
