DPI Private School Report Due Next Month

All private schools must submit the PI-1207: Private School Report to the DPI by Oct. 15.

Not only is promptly submitting the report required by state law, it also confirms to the DPI that your school is open and active and ensures your school is eligible for certain funding opportunities, like the federal Title Programs under the Every Students Succeeds Act (ESSA).

The report asks for basic information about your school, including enrollment numbers and communication preferences. Schools submit the form online here.

If you have questions about the PI-1207, please contact WCRIS.
