School Enrollment of Resident Employees’ Children. Bargaining unit employees whose children attend Shrewsbury Public Schools as residents of Shrewsbury may request that their child be enrolled in a school that is different from their normally assigned school, if the bargaining unit employee works at the other school. Enrollment of the student in a different school other than assigned where the bargaining unit employee works, is subject to the approval of the Superintendent. In making this determination, the Superintendent will consider various factors, including grade configuration and class sizes at the school where the student would attend.
