SchoolChoice Season Highlights

Every January, students and families have the opportunity to select the school they’d like to attend the following year by participating in SchoolChoice. Run by DPS, this system helps empower families to select the best school for their student- not just the one that is closest in proximity. Choice helps ensure that a student’s academic opportunities aren’t solely determined by their zip code. Families choose their top 12 schools, and after a lottery in early Spring, they learn which schools they have a spot in for the following year.
