Seattle Public Schools’ students should be enrolled by Aug. 28

by | Aug 15, 2012

Seattle Public Schools is urging all families to enroll students by Tuesday, Aug. 28, so the district can make sure all students are assigned to a school by the first day of school, on Wednesday, Sept. 5.

Families new to Seattle Public Schools who have not yet enrolled can submit their applications by mail, by email, or by visiting us at the John Stanford Center for Educational Excellence (JSCEE) at 2445 3rd Ave. S. You can find a map, driving directions, and bus routes to reach the John Stanford Center here. Downloadable enrollment applications can be found here.
Enrollment hours are 8:30 a.m.- 4 p.m. Monday-Friday.
In addition, families should note that the JSCEE building will be closed Wednesday, Aug. 29 due to a district-mandated unpaid furlough day for all employees, one in a series of furlough days aimed at offsetting reductions in state education funding.
Families of current students who are continuing enrollment at their assigned school DO NOT need to visit the John Stanford Center. Families of current students who wish to transfer schools can submit their enrollment applications via email, by mail or by using our 24-hour drop box located at the JSCEE south entrance, facing Lander Street.
