Parents of all students who are entering middle school must provide all documents listed on the enrollment checklist and complete an enrollment form ranking their preferences of schools. Under state law, parents may request any school in the district; however, first priority will be given to families who live in the school’s attendance zone. Out-of-zone students will be considered after in-zone students are assigned.
