In Poudre School District, all schools offer strong academic and social opportunities for students. At our neighborhood schools, your child will live near and go to class with their classmates, building a tightknit community together over time.
If your family is looking for a specific program or curriculum to best meet your child’s educational needs that isn’t available at your neighborhood school, however, PSD’s K-12 school choice program might be for you.
K-12 School Choice Process for the 2023-24 School Year
Some things have changed:
- Submit school choice applications between Nov. 1 and Dec. 15 for the first-round period. Visit the School Choice Application Process web page to submit an application.
- PSD has a new platform to submit school choice applications.
- Many schools host informational sessions and open houses. Please contact the school or schools you are interested in applying to for details about their events.
- The School Choice policy and priority rankings have been updated.
Submitting a school choice application does not guarantee enrollment at any school applied for; acceptance is based on eligibility requirements and space availability.
More information, including instructions on using the new application system and school options, are available on the PSD School Choice Process web page.>>
