The Tecumseh Public Schools Board of Education voted to open a second schools‑of‑choice window for students in grades 1 through 5, running July 23 through Aug. 6, the board was told Wednesday. Superintendent Hilton recommended the additional window after staff reported limited available seats in grades 1–5 and outreach from families expressing interest. The district previously opened an unlimited schools‑of‑choice window for kindergarten and grades 6–12, which remains open. The motion to open the second window was moved and seconded during the action portion of the meeting; a roll call vote recorded unanimous approval from the trustees present. Trustees were told staff check enrollment daily and that the additional 15‑day window was intended to accommodate families who had recently asked to enroll children in those grades. Ending — administration and timing: The district will accept applications during the 15‑day window and will notify families according to normal enrollment procedures.
