Greetings DCSD Stakeholders,
Our School Choice Open Enrollment process is well underway, with over 20, 000 applications submitted thus far, this is nearly 5,000 more than were submitted this time last year! However, we do realize there are families continuing to experience difficulty with their submission. In an effort to provide additional support, our Call Center hours will be extended to 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. from January 24 to February 11, 2022. Please call
678-676-0050 for support with your application. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work through this situation.
School Choice Open Enrollment
The School Choice Open Enrollment window for the 2022 - 2023 lottery will open on Friday, January 7, 2022. On-time applications must be submitted by Friday, February 11th, 2022, at 4:00 p.m. The online application website is https://yourchoicedekalb.org/login. Detailed information about programs and eligibility can be found on the School Choice website at www.dekalbschoolsga.org/school-choice. Application status will be on the parent's dashboard. Lottery results will be emailed to all applicants on March 25, 2022. 
If you have a DLI 5th grader attending via School Choice, those students automatically matriculate to Henderson Middle School (whether you live in the feeder pattern or not). If your child is in the attendance zone for Evansdale, Henderson Middle School is the next school in our Lakeside Cluster feeder pattern and your child will automatically matriculate. If your child is attending Evansdale through the Science and Technology Magnet, your student automatically matriculates to Columbia Middle School. If you have any questions, please contact Mr. Clayton at [email protected].
