    What should I Bring?

    How does the School Prioritize for enrollment?

    Students who want to attend outside their attendance-area school will be prioritized for enrollment using the categories below. When more students wish to attend a school than placements available, a lottery will be run.

    The district average of students whose primary household language is other than English is 50%. For schools that do not meet this average, placements will be prioritized so that schools can mirror the demographics of the district as a whole. Additionally, students will be prioritized as follows:

    Students who live within the Roaring Fork School District

    1. Students who are dependents of full-time district employees and who are applying for enrollment in a school or school community where their parent is employed by the district;

    2. Students who have a sibling attending the school;

    3. Students who have been attending a Roaring Fork school that is not in the attendance area of their preferred school;

    4. Students who intend to enroll in specialized programs not offered in their attendance school (e.g. ROTC);

    5. Students who have been attending a school other than a Roaring Fork school, within the attendance area of their preferred school and have completed the last grade level in that school;

    6. All other applicants who live within the Roaring Fork School District.

    Students who do not live within the Roaring Fork School District

    1. Students who are dependents of full-time district employees and who are applying for enrollment in a school or school community where their parent is employed by the district;
    2. Students who have been attending a Roaring Fork school;
    3. Siblings of students who have been attending a Roaring Fork School within the attendance area of their preferred school;
    4. Students who intend to enroll in specialized programs not offered in their home district (e.g. ROTC);
    5. All other applicants.
    What does each term mean?

    As outlined in Policy JFBB, term descriptions are:

    • Registration: to complete the online application through the district website.
    • Processed: To review the application materials and ensure it is complete. Students are added to an Enrollment Tracker for school Registrars and Administration
    • Approved: To confirm the application materials have been completed correctly. Approved does not mean enrolled in the school. Information on the application, at the time of approval, is transferred to Infinite Campus. Enrolled: Confirmed seat placement in the requested school. Enrollment is completed by the school Registrar after a registration is processed.
