Ann Arbor Public Schools Set Tuition For Non-Resident Students

In lieu of state funds, Ann Arbor Public Schools will charge almost $15,000 tuition for some non-residents. The school board approved the maximum tuition the state allows for students that missed schools of choice enrollment or aren't eligible.  

Board President Deb Mexicotte says it could be a good option for families that move to the area in the middle of a school year.  They could pay tuition until the next schools of choice enrollment period for a smoother transition. 

Mexicotte says in the past the district has gotten 5 to 10 inquiries a year but haven't had an option for these students.

Like many, I first came to this area when I started school at the University of Michigan, then fell in love with the community and haven’t left. After graduating from U of M in the mid 1990’s I interned at WDET for several years, while also working a variety of jobs in Ann Arbor. Then in 1999 I joined the WEMU news team.
