District will offer school visits, accept school choice requests starting in January
In Eugene School District 4J, every school offers an excellent education for our students. Students may enroll in their neighborhood school at any time, or request enrollment in a different 4J school, provided there is a place available. Requests are accepted in an order determined by lottery.
The school choice period begins in January each year. To be included in the annual lottery for the 2017–18 school year, 4J residents must apply between Tuesday, January 3 and Tuesday, February 28 at 5 p.m. Non-district residents must apply between Wednesday, March 1 and Saturday, April 1 at 5 p.m.
