Selecting the Right School!

 

Selecting the right school should be based on:

  1. Your child's goal
  2. School Culture 
  3. Location and proximity
  4. Popularity/Entry score
You will be given an offer, reservation, or no offers based on your 3 choices.
You must place down your ideal Selective School as the number 1 choice and not the hardest based on the list. Because if an offer is given then there will be no other offer provided for your other choices!
Your last choice can be insurance by selecting a lower entry score school, such as a partially selective High School.

For the 2023 Selective School, the required score for entry ordered by the school on the list only is shown below.
