Inter- and Intra-District Enrollment

The Steamboat Springs School District (SSSD) has recently updated its Inter- and Intra-District policies (Student Policies S-3 and S-4). Inter-district students are those who attend SSSD schools but live outside the SSSD boundaries. Intra-district students are those who live within SSSD boundaries but attend a school outside their residential boundaries. Click here to view the District K-8 boundaries. 

  • All parents and guardians of students who attend SSSD schools must complete the Annual Update by May 10 to update their proof of residency.

  • All parents and guardians of Inter- and Intra-District students must apply annually if they wish to enroll their student in a school outside of their boundaries. All Inter- and Intra-district students will be reviewed annually at each building and at the District level.

Intra-District Families

  • If it is determined that an Intra-District family no longer lives within their boundary school area but still lives within Steamboat Springs School District, they will be required to complete an Intra-District form (English and Spanish). 

  • For existing families, the District will review all Intra-District requests and the first round of notifications of approval or denial will be the closest business day to May 15th

  • If a student is denied in the first round, the student will be placed on a waiting list and will be notified no later than within 5 business days after the application deadline of August 10th.  

  • Students of employees will have first priority during the application review process.

Inter-District Families (live outside the SSSD boundary area)

  • For new families, if you wish your child to matriculate as a nonresident student, you need to fill out the "Inter-District Enrollment Application" (S-4-E) form (English and Spanish) and submit it to the school district office before August 10. You will be notified of the approval or denial of your request by August 15.

  • For existing families, you need to fill out the Interdistrict Annual Enrollment Renewal Request (S-4-E-1) form (English and Spanish) and update the student information system (ALMA) by May 10th every year to continue your child's enrollment in the Steamboat Springs School District for the next school year. You will be notified of the approval or denial of your request by May 15th.

  • First round of notifications for approval or denial will be the closest business day to May 15th. If a student is denied in the first round, the student will be placed on a waiting list and will be notified of approval or denial within 5 business days of the August 10th application deadline. 

  • Students of employees will have first priority during the application review process.
