– Tuesday is the last day families can apply to have their k-12 students attend a school outside of their neighborhood.If you’re just getting around to thinking about this application for next year now, then you’re a little bit behind, but even if you’ve already applied, it doesn’t guarantee you a spot at your child’s preferred school.
Applications go into a lottery process, and the drawings are based on how many spots there are, academic factors, as well as certain key considerations including, where that student lives, if the student has a parent in the military and if the student has a sibling attending the same school.A computer program will select students based on the priority of each of the schools or programs, and also, the projected grade level.
Any extra spot remaining after the lottery could be filled during a controlled open enrollment period, which happens a few times a year.Copyright 2023 by WJXT News4JAX - All rights reserved.
