Once your child is pre-registered, their name will be placed in the lottery. On the dates listed, each location will have a drawing of students who have pre-registered from January 15th, up to the drawing date. The names of these students will be drawn until all slots are filled. The remaining names will be placed on a waitlist. Students who pre-registered after the drawing will be added to the waitlist in the order in which they pre-registered.
