It’s time to begin thinking about high school registration for next year. This is new to some of you, so I’m here to answer any questions you may have! Here are some things you and your 8th grader should start discussing:
What is my feeder/neighborhood high school?
Start here by finding out what your neighborhood/feeder school is. There is a map attached below to help you visualize your neighborhood school, as well as all other choice schools near you.
Is this the best high school for me?
Do some research about your neighborhood school. What classes do they offer? What extracurriculars are you interested in? What sports/clubs are offered at this school?
Ballard High School
Chief Sealth International High School
Franklin High School
Garfield High School
Ingraham High School
Lincoln High School
Nathan Hale High School
Rainier Beach High School
Roosevelt High School
West Seattle High School
If my neighborhood school is not the best, what are my high school choice options?
Center School
Cleveland STEM High School
Interagency Academy
Middle College High School
Nova High School
Seattle World School
Alan T. Sugiyama High School
Attend one of the Open Houses available for each school! This will help you gain more insight into what makes each school unique, and help you decide where to go.
If you decide that your neighborhood school isn’t the best fit, you will need to fill out the Student Choice Form once open enrollment begins on February 1st. Make sure your contact information is updated on The Source (this is how the district will contact you). I will send out another email once open enrollment begins to help walk you through that process.
Please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions or concerns or set up a time to chat about high school enrollment!
