Let's Talk About Schools: Enid, Oklahoma

Out of town buyers are always interested in Enid schools and rightfully so since school districts can play an important roll in location value and resale potential of a home. Enid is an “open” school district meaning that you can enroll your children in any school you wish, provided there is room and you are willing to provide transportation to and from class each day. Having said that, the only way to guarantee your child a spot in a specific school is to live in that school’s district. There are several schools that are always in high demand including all Chisholm schools and several elementary schools including Prairie View, Hayes, Taft, and Glenwood. I encourage buyers to conduct their own research to decide which school is the best fit for their children.

For many, Enid’s private schools are an excellent choice as well. Private school prices are much more affordable in Enid than in other parts of the country. My husband and I chose Cimarron Montessori for our daughter during our first assignment here but there are several to choose from. Cimarron offers classes for children as young as 2 years old and goes up to the 6th grade. When my daughter was little, she attended for a half-day, everyday although full days with before and after care are available.
