School Choice

New Jersey's Interdistrict Public School Choice Program enables approved choice districts to enroll K-12th grade students who do not reside within their districts without cost to their parents. The program increases educational opportunities for students and their families by providing students with school options outside of their district of residence and giving parents the power to select a school program that best serves their child's individual needs.

Students and their families select the choice district they want to apply to by visiting Find a Choice District and then they must submit the choice application found on the district's website directly to the district. Each district has its own choice application. Where choice options are available, any student who resides in New Jersey is eligible to apply.
