The Open Enrollment period is now closed. Any application
received after 5:00 p.m. on February 10, 2012 cannot be
accepted.
If you have completed an Open Enrollment application, the
application is being processed and verified.
If applications exceed space available at school of choice a
computerized lottery system is implemented.
If you applied for a specialized criteria school and did not
meet the requirements, you will not be placed in the lottery. Any
questions should be directed to the school site administrator at
the requested site.
If space is not available at your first or second choice
school, the student will remain at their neighborhood school. The
student’s name is then placed on a wait list for their
first choice school selection.
Once the lottery is run and student placement is determined,
letters will be mailed to parents by the end of March 2012.

Open Enrollment is not a first-come, first-serve basis. Open
Enrollment uses a computerized lottery system to place students
at their school of choice. A lottery must be implemented if
applications exceed the grade capacity at the requested school.
If your child isn’t selected during this step, he/she will be
placed on a waiting list.
