Please send your appeal to the email address on the letter that you received. This email address should only be used for appeals by families that have applied and been denied, and therefore should not be shared. We will respond to all appeals after the appeal period is over on February 18th. A letter of the appeal decision will be sent to the family's home address. 

There is no appeals process for waitlist number. You will remain on the waitlist until your child is called off the waitlist. Until that happens you will be defaulted to your residential school or choice assignment (if you filled out choice). 

Yes, you must complete a choice/magnet application during the choice period and check our website periodically to see if we have extended the window for accepting applications for the Virtual Academy for K-8 or 9-12. 

Magnet/Choice applications will be on file for one school year. Families can log into their scribbles application dashboard to see the current status of their applications during this time.

Once they apply to enter in the Magnet lottery, the students are selected by a computerized random selection process.

Preference shall be granted for the enrollment of any sibling of a current K-12 student at a Magnet school, but no more than fifty percent (50%) of any grade shall be reserved for siblings. If there is not sufficient room for a sibling in a grade level, that sibling shall be placed at the top of the waiting list for the grade.  The term "sibling" shall mean brother, sister, stepbrother and stepsister who reside together in the same household. If the parents are divorced or living separate and apart and the siblings reside in separate households, the sibling preference does not apply.

Yes, you will need to fill out an application for a rising sibling, if you want them to attend the same school.  Once you have been accepted into a Magnet school, your application will be removed from all other waiting lists.

Yes, all Magnet programs require students to apply for placement.

You will receive your Magnet results by letter to your home address as well as by email.

Students who are currently enrolled in a Magnet School do not have to reapply unless they want to change schools.

Once you have been accepted into a Magnet school, your application will be removed from all other waiting lists.

Please notify the Student Assignment Office at 336-748-3302 to make changes to your student's Magnet application. 

No, not at this time. We have an in-person option or Virtual Academy.
