Middle Schools

Middle School
The middle school choice process aims to provide students with the opportunity to choose a middle school that suits their interests and needs. Most districts have choice processes in which you must submit an application indicating your middle school preferences. A few districts have primarily zoned middle schools in which your middle school is determined by your home address. The middle school admissions timeline is the same regardless of your district.
