What are my options if I’d like to enroll my child in a school outside of my neighborhood?
• Federal Way Public Schools offers the Choice program, which allows a student to attend a school located outside of a student’s resident service area on a space-available basis. The necessary paperwork must be completed and submitted by the spring deadline, after which the child’s name is entered in a lottery for the school they have requested. Students from out of district cannot be part of the lottery, but can be placed in a district school after requests from in-district students are accommodated. Parents are responsible for transportation for students attending schools outside of their service areas. For more information on the choice program, go to http://www.fwps.org/info/choice/. Choice applications are available at the schools and at the Educational Service Center (ESC), 31405 18 th Ave. South , in Federal Way . • After the Choice session has passed, decisions about admitting students from outside the service area are up to the school’s administrators.
