First Round Offers of Admission
 
The highest scoring qualified applicant from each
district pool will be offered admission. Qualified
applicants are those who meet the minimum
standards as outlined in 1b(1) of this policy.
• District pool is the resident public
school (excluding regional high school
districts) that an applicant resides in at
the time of application.
Subsequent Rounds
The entire applicant pool will be reconsidered if
space permits.
  Total rank will be given priority over a student’s
resident district.
  In most years we over enroll in anticipation of some
attrition.
  If an opening occurs, the entire applicant list will be
reviewed for a replacement.
