Enrollment
Bishop Dwenger High School promotes an open enrollment policy accepting students without regard to color, race, gender, or national origin, and reasonably accommodates the disabled in its educational programs. Individual circumstances in all cases will be weighed with the final decision resting with the Administration concerning admittance. This handbook is a general reflection of policies established by the Diocese of Fort Wayne - South Bend and the tradition that has been created over the years at Bishop Dwenger. A more detailed listing of such policies will be distributed on Verification Day.
Transfer Policy
The following policy on students wishing to transfer from one diocesan high school to another has been adopted by the Diocese of Fort Wayne-South Bend and is now in effect. Once the academic year has begun, students shall be discouraged from transferring to another high school except in the case of a change of residence. The principal of the school from which the student requests to be transferred shall be notified immediately once the request is made. It is expected that a decision agreeable to both schools regarding the requested transfer can be made by the principals involved. All financial matters at the original school must be satisfied before an official transcript may be sent to the receiving school. All rules and regulations of Indiana High School Athletic Association (IHSAA) regarding athletic eligibility shall be strictly enforced.
