Secondary Schools Closed to Optional Attendance.pdfClosed/Limited High Schools
This list came out today (December 11). If a school is deemed Closed, they will not be accepting students under Optional Attendance (out of area). If a school is not Closed, it is Limited; they may have some space for out of area students. If the school receives more applications than they have room, they will conduct a lottery.
