Midtown High School Residency Review
Atlanta Public Schools is currently in an annual review process to consider challenges and solutions to address overcrowding at schools. Midtown High School is one of the schools that is currently over a 100% utilization rate. The utilization rate is projected to be 113% in SY2025-26.
As a part of implementing solutions to overcrowding, we are undertaking a residency review to ensure that only students legitimately residing in the Midtown High School attendance zone are enrolled. The residency review will evaluate residency information for the following students:
·All current 9th and 10th grade Midtown HS students
·Rising 9th grade students at Howard MS, Centennial Academy, and Kindezi Old Fourth Ward
Note: This verification process will be completed in lieu of the standard 9th grade registration process. Please do not complete the Infinite Campus Online Registration process.
Only families that received direct notification are impacted by the residency review.
