Apply to RKIHS in
three easy steps!

Step 1 – Learn more about Rufus King International High School!

  • Attend the Virtual Open House for Potential Incoming Freshmen on Thursday, October 1, 2020 from 5:30 p.m.-7:30 p.m. (not mandatory for application)

Step 2 – Virtual enrollment for MPS high schools and middle schools is open September 26 through November 1, 2020

Enrolling during the Early Admissions timeframe improves the chances of students getting their first-choice school. Families of students applying for schools with selection requirements must submit required information by the November 1 deadline.

All enrollment activities will be conducted virtually this year due to building closures during the pandemic.

Current Students - Parents and guardians of MPS 5th and 8th graders must have an active Parent Portal account to apply for schools. The application will automatically attach the student’s report card, attendance, and other required information from last year. Below is a list of MPS schools that can transfer this information to a student’s application.

Visit the Infinite Portal webpage if you already have your account set up.

If you need your account activated, you must contact your child’s school to obtain your Universal ID code.

Students New to MPS - Students who attended a school outside of MPS for 7th grade need to complete the New/Returning Student Application. Your school will send a link to complete the writing assessment.

Non-MPS families can apply by following these steps.

Step 3 – You’ll receive your school enrollment by early December!

  • As noted above, students will be enrolled in the highest-ranked school to which they are accepted.

  • If you do not choose a school during Early Enrollment, MPS will make a school placement based on your student’s current program or neighborhood school.
