Parents/guardians of all students new to the District (including kindergarten) must complete a Schools of Choice/Transfer Application (available at each school site and the District Office beginning February 1, 2010) only if they would like their child to attend a school other than their home school. Students have priority to remain at their home area school.

Is my child guaranteed a spot at our neighborhood school? Español
Students who live in the attendance area of a school are given first priority for placement at that school in the order of enrollment throughout the month of February. If spots fill up with students who live in the attendance area before the end of February, additional students who live in the attendance area will be placed on a waiting list according to the order in which they enrolled, and will be admitted in that order as spots open up. Until a spot opens up, students will be placed at another school in the district.
Does my child have to attend our neighborhood school? Español
If parents/guardians would like their child to attend a school other than their assigned school, they must first submit a student registration (enrollment) form for their assisnged neighborhood school. Then, they must complete a Schools of Choice/Transfer Application (available at each school site and the District Office.)
