Out-of-Area Requests

Note: The online application for the 2010-2011 school year will be available Feb. 16, 2010. 

Students may request the opportunity to attend a school other than the primary one serving their neighborhood. The specifically allowable reasons are limited and are noted on the application.

Applications will only be approved to attend schools that have space available. In most cases, this means the school must be under 90 percent of its enrollment capacity. (Admission to magnet schools is through a separate, magnet application process.)

All students approved for out-of-area placements must provide their own transportation and must maintain good attendance. While in most cases placements will be continued year to year, an annual review of student attendance, behavior and academic progress might lead to revocation.
