High
School Enrollment
Enrolling in high school is very similar to the K-8 enrollment
process. The three choice school selection form is still used.
There
are several things that are different when enrolling in
a high school
• All
high schools except King and Milwaukee High School of the Arts reserve 55% of seats for
students in their attendance area.
• All high schools offer different programs. Students in a
program take classes designed to teach specific skills.
Many specialize in career training.
• Middle School attendance affects high school acceptance.
Students with a 90% or higher attendance first semester
of their eighth grade year are given preference.
• Many high schools have entrance requirements. These may
include things like GPA requirements, auditions and extracurricular
participation. Please attend the school’s open house
or call the school of interest for details regarding entrance
requirements.
