Application Update April 2009
Our first magnet registration process has been a success! We had 85 applicants for the Sustainability Academy at Barnes and the Integrated Arts Academy at HO Wheeler, and more continue to come in. Our first round of enrollment decisions have been made, and families have been notified.
Over a hundred interested families attended information sessions and open houses in March. Teams at each schools are working with community partners and parents, to prepare and plan together.
Our magnet registration process closed on March 13th. We have a few spots available in a few grades, so if you are interested, you may still apply for entry or for our waitlists.
