Law will open school enrollment: That could have some affect on Topeka’s housing market

As educators prepare for a new open enrollment policy scheduled to go into effect after two more school years, parents who are looking for homes may be able to consider more affordable houses outside their preferred district. Open enrollment is a school choice policy that allows parents to enroll their children as students in a school outside the district they live in. While supporters of the policy pushed it as a way to increase academic opportunity, they also say it could help homebuyers find more affordable housing.
