Track-Out (And Magnet Info)

We are tracked out!  See everyone back on January 25th.

 

During our track out this year is the magnet school application period.  Students took home information today about a specific magnet school, and I am putting some more information here for your perusal.  Students also received their base school assignment today.  This is the school that they are scheduled to attend next year unless they are accepted into a magnet school.

 

I highly suggest taking a look at your middle school options, and seeing if there might be a school that is a better fit for your student and your family.  There are many options, including many that have neighborhood busing.

Here is the process in a nutshell:

You apply, giving your 1st through 5th choices

A bit of a lottery occurs, and students are given their choices, or put on a waiting list.

 

The application period is from January  7th to January 22nd

The application/magnet website is here, but it is not the most simple of sites to navigate, so I am including some important links below.

 

To find your base school, go here

You can also click on maps there to look at school divisions and get transportation information.

The different magnet middle schools are here

On that page, click on each one for information

 

If you are interested in a magnet school, the application will be accessible starting January 7th I believe.

Again, the application dates are January 7th to January 22nd.  I strongly encourage you to take a look and apply if a school looks like it would be a good fit.

 

 

 

I hope you all have a fabulous track-out.
