Call the school or the magnet office for a schedule of parent information meetings. Interested students must apply for a Magnet or Option program. Magnet and Option applications will be available at all IPS schools or from the district Magnet Office beginning in October of each school year. Applications are to be completed and signed by the parent, then returned to the school for processing. Elementary option programs have no eligibility requirements.
Some programs have audition or portfolio requirements.
Eligible students are assigned to programs using a lottery system. Racial balance of the program and available seats are taken into consideration when assigning students. First semester waiting lists will be maintained for students not admitted to programs. Students may be placed on two waiting lists.
