Program Overview

Our Mission

In addition to providing effective and innovative educational practices, New Haven Interdistrict Magnet Schools are designed to foster student enrollment patterns that reflect racial, ethnic and economic diversity.

Families must apply to our schools.  Students are placed in schools through a lottery.  See application rules and process on Page 22 for full details.
 

Who Can Apply

Our schools are open to all Connecticut residents.  There are no admission requirements, tests or prerequisites for our students.  We serve special education students, English Language learners, talented and gifted students and everyone else who comes through the lottery to our schools.  No student may be denied enrollment because of race, ethnicity or disability. 
 

Admission Preference

All schools give preference to siblings of students currently enrolled.  Siblings are defined as brothers and sisters living in the same household with the same parent(s).
