Important Information - District Residency
Attendance areas have been established for each school. Students may be assigned to attend a school outside of their attendance area due to capacity limitations, to balance class sizes, or to make maximum use of available classroom space.
If students must be assigned to a school outside of their attendance area, students who enroll before March 15th will be entered into a lottery. However, students with a sibling at the site from which transfer is required will be given priority over other residents, if the currently attending sibling will continue to attend that school the following year. Families will be notified of lottery results and school placement by April 1st.
Students who enroll after March 15th will be assigned by date of completed enrollment packet, regardless of sibling status.
Información Importante - Residencia Distrital
Se han establecido zonas de asistencia para cada escuela. Los estudiantes podrían ser asignados a una escuela fuera de su zona de asistencia debido a limitaciones de capacidad, para equilibrar el tamaño de las clases o para aprovechar al máximo el espacio disponible en las aulas.
Si es necesario asignar a un estudiante a una escuela fuera de su zona de asistencia, los estudiantes que se matriculen antes del 15 de Marzo participarán en un sorteo. Sin embargo, los estudiantes con un hermano(a) en la escuela desde la que se requiere la transferencia tendrán prioridad sobre los demás residentes, si el hermano que asiste actualmente continuará asistiendo a esa escuela el año siguiente. Se notificará a las familias los resultados del sorteo y la asignación escolar antes del 1 de Abril.
Los estudiantes que se inscriban después del 15 de Marzo serán asignados según la fecha del paquete de inscripción completo, independientemente del estado de hermano.
Find Your Resident School
Important: You can begin the registration process as soon as you are physically living full-time in the Miller Creek School District. Simply owning property or holding a lease does not qualify as residency.
Importante: Puede iniciar el proceso de inscripción tan pronto como resida físicamente a tiempo completo en el distrito escolar de Miller Creek. Ser propietario de una propiedad o tener un contrato de arrendamiento no constituye prueba de residencia.
