January 5, 2011 CHOICE ENROLLMENT OPENS FOR JEFFCO PUBLIC SCHOOLS Jefferson County families, who wish to enroll their children in a school other than their neighborhood school, have the option of participating in Jeffco Public Schools’ choice enrollment process for the 2011-12 school year. First-round choice enrollment for the 2011-12 school year begins Wednesday, Jan. 5 and closes on Monday, Jan. 24. Parents/guardians will be notified no later than Tuesday, Feb. 15 about their student’s enrollment status. Applications during the second-round, from Wednesday, Feb. 16 to Tuesday, Aug. 30, are added to the remaining names on the first-round list on a first-come, first-served basis. Any student in Colorado may enroll in any Jeffco Public School that has classroom space. To access a choice enrollment form, visit: http://jeffcoweb.jeffco.k12.co.us/enrollment. Simply fill out the form and submit it to the school of choice. Students will be accepted on a space available basis. Round-one applications are prioritized through a lottery process and waiting lists are created if applicants exceed space available at the school. A separate application must be completed and submitted for each child. Specific questions about enrolling in a school can generally be answered by calling that school's administrative office.
