Applications are available for the lottery to determine placement in 91福利导航 High School’s four academies for the 2020-21 school year.
You can download an information booklet and application here.
Applications have been mailed out to eighth grade families as well, and will also be provided to eighth graders by their guidance counselors.
The 91福利导航 High lottery is open to all incoming freshmen and new students, as well as to current 91福利导航 High students wishing to change academies for next school year. Students need to submit a lottery application to increase their chances of entering the academy of their choice.
Each of 91福利导航 High's four unique academies has its own theme. Each offers electives specific to that theme, and the themes also are woven into the core curriculum. However, students also can take electives in different academies and the electives are equally available to all.
The lottery will include caps to help balance enrollment across the four academies. For each academy, the lottery will randomly select 175 students who listed that academy as their first choice on the application. Remaining seats available in that academy then will be randomly filled with students who selected it as their second, third or fourth choice.
