All applications received by January 31 will be sorted by the high school magnet cluster in which a student resides and assigned a computer generated random number. Applications submitted after January 31 will be added to the lists by the date/time the applications received.

Siblings have priority in the magnet application process. Applications from siblings of concurrently enrolled students will be randomized and placed at the top of the lists if received during the priority application period, October 1 through January 31. Applications from siblings received after January 31 will be added to future lists by date and time received.

Oak Park accepts students in cluster order, 1, 2, 3

Please refer to the district webpage for current enrollment priorities.

Transportation

The district generally provides free transportation for students who attend magnet programs outside their neighborhood school boundary and having a walking distance exceeding two miles (Note: Secondary students must have a walking distance exceeding 2.5 miles). Transportation may not be provided to elementary/secondary students attending a magnet school within their resident middle school/high school feeder pattern. Transportation is available on the first day of school for students who have enrolled prior to July for the school year starting in September.

The Transportation Department works to assist schools in meeting their transportation needs. But the rule of eight applies to all magnet programs. This means that at least eight students from an area must be riding on that route. A new route is not developed to meet the needs of an individual child.
