Edison Middle School Lottery and Middle School Placement

School Assignment for Middle Schools (Policy 5040)

Middle school students have the opportunity to participate in a lottery for school assignment each year.  Students who do not participate in the lottery are assigned to the school of the designated school attendance area where their parent/guardian resides. Once admitted to a school through the lottery, students shall continue in attendance in that school through the middle school grades, subject to their right to participate in the lottery for school assignment for the coming year.  Students seeking to enroll in middle school after school is out for the summer will be assigned for the coming year to the middle school that best serves the district’s interests (e.g., space available, resources) as determined by the Superintendent. Once assigned, such students shall continue in attendance in that school through the middle school grades, subject to their right to participate in the lottery for school assignment for the coming year.

Edison Middle School online lottery applications for the 2025-2026 school year will be available starting January 21, 2025.  The lottery will close on February 10, 2025.
