- February— we collect course request numbers from students/review permits and boundary student numbers to determine how many permits we can facilitate. We have reviewed overall numbers and permits. Currently our incoming 6th is at 326, 7th grade at 307, and 8th grade at 315. At the end of this month, we will look at open enrollment permits, likely accepting a few in 7th grade and then place the remaining students on a waiting list for next year. We will look at permits and numbers again towards the end of June and the beginning of the school year.
