Choice Student Transfer applications for the 2025-2026 school year will be accepted for both new and returning students starting May 1. Please do not submit a Choice application prior to May 1 or it will be rejected.

All applications for non-resident attendance will be considered on an equal basis as per school. For more information about the Choice transfer process from OSPI, follow THIS LINK.
