Register for the 2024-25 school year here. Please make sure to check the 24-25 school year in your application. If you'd like to apply for the 23-24 school year, check that year instead. This application includes Magnet enrollment.
We offer choices to suit every kind of student: Traditional schools, Montessori schools, magnet programs and schools with special programming, and Career and Technical Education (CTE) pathways programs. Some of our high schools are aligned with area colleges and universities and share courses, providing students with college credits.
Parents of students with special needs who were previously enrolled in a separate setting /self-contained class should report to Special Education Services with their student’s current Individual Education Plan (IEP).
