1 8 The board of the receiving district shall enroll

1 10 the following school year unless the receiving
1 11 district does not have classroom space for the pupil
1 12 or the receiving district's superintendent denies the

1 16 desegregation plan pursuant to subsection 3. The
1 17 board of directors of a receiving district may adopt a
1 18 policy granting the superintendent of the school
1 19 district authority to approve open enrollment
1 20 applications. If the request is granted, the board
1 21 shall transmit a copy of the form to the parent or
1 22 guardian and the school district of residence within
1 23 five days after board action, but not later than June
1 24 1 of the preceding school year. The parent or
1 25 guardian may withdraw the request at any time prior to
