Qualification Requirements Old

Parents of interested students must submit an application online by the designated application deadline. All qualified applicants are placed in a random computerized lottery.

Elementary and Middle School

Entry to an elementary or middle school magnet program is interest-based. It is important to encourage parents to research schools carefully and attend one or more community events in order to receive the best information about each program offering.

High School

Entry is criteria and interest-based. Starting in the 2019-2020 application season, admissions criteria were eliminated for the majority of high school magnet programs with the exception of highly rigorous programs in the realm of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) and audition-based performing and visual arts programs. Students applying to a criteria-based program will be required to meet eligibility requirements in order to be considered in the lottery. Students applying to a performing or visual arts program will be required to audition and meet eligibility requirements to be considered in the lottery.

Students with Disabilities

It is the policy of CCSD to afford equal opportunity in education to qualified students. If parents believe
their child has a disability that may affect his/her ability to fully participate in magnet programs to which
the student is applying, they are encouraged to voluntarily provide information about their child’s disability and related needs with the application. This will be considered after the initial review committee has completed its application review, for accommodation purposes only. Admission criteria will not be waived, but accommodations will be made, where possible, to allow the student to meet the requirements.

Current CCSD Students
Information regarding the student’s current disability and/or accommodation will be accessed through Infinite Campus.

Non-CCSD Students
Parents/guardians are encouraged to voluntarily provide information about their child’s disability and related needs with the application.
