Hillsborough County School Choice Applications Open

Are you interested in your child attending a magnet program, career and tech program or a school not assigned to your child?

The Hillsborough Choice Options application period for the 2013-2014 school year opens April 16 and runs through May 3, 2013, according to an announcement issued by the district.

Under Hillsborough Choice Options students can apply for a magnet school, a career and technical Education program, or another public school with available space within Hillsborough County. Students who wish to remain at their current magnet or choice school or prefer to attend their attendance area school, do not need to complete an application, according to the statement.

School choice and magnet programs are available for students entering kindergarten through 11th grade in 2013-2014.  Students currently enrolled in a Hillsborough County public school should apply directly online. Students new to Hillsborough County Public Schools can download an application from the Choice Options website, complete it, and mail it to the address listed on the application.  

Applications are available beginning at noon on April 16 online. For more information call 813-272-4692.
