My School DC PK3-8 App Deadline: TODAY
Good morning! Today is the My School DC application deadline for grades PK3-8. Please take a moment and read on for helpful information to pass onto your families. Thank you for helping us in this effort!
 
3 Steps to Apply
 
Step 1: Families can learn more about what they need to apply by clicking HERE.
  • If families have children that are currently DCPS or DC public charter school students, they will be asked to provide their Student ID or DC One Card number. Don't readily know the Student ID? Families can call the My School DC Hotline for this information at (202) 888-6336.
Step 2: Families need to create a family account. Families only need to create one family account.
  • Please do not create an account under your name for families. If you're assisting a family with this process, please help them create their own account. Write down their username and password for them so that they do not forget. You may add yourself (if the family agrees) as a secondary contact on the application.
Step 3: Apply! Families can apply to up to 12 schools. Listing their choices in the order they prefer matters. The lottery will try to match families with their 1st choice first, then their 2nd choice, and so on. Remember that families should only list schools they want to send their child to.
