We live in Morrisville area. My son will start going to elementary school from this September. I don't know much about the schooling system so I need help.
Can we choose which school my kid can go. Or he has to go the home school.
what should be the process? Should I start visiting a few school and can I fill the application for any school I like? what are the chances he will get admission in a school I like.
What are charter and megnet school? What charter and magnet schools are available for zip code 27560?
I think his home school is Ceder Fork.
How is this school? I heard they are not taking any more kids and moving new kids to carpenter elementary. Is that true? How is that school?
I was reading about one more school "Morrisville elementary school". How is that school?
Assignments don't go by zip code (or even subdivision), they go strictly by address.
I've heard good things about Cedar Fork. At one point last spring they did say they were over capacity and any additional students that enrolled would not be assigned to Cedar Fork. I'm not sure what happend with that but I would hope they reassigned some nodes so the school is no longer over capacity.
Morrisville Elementary is a very good school too. We applied last year and didn't get in (we ended up moving so it didn't matter). I believe they only had space for about half the students that applied.
Anyway, I would enroll in your base elementary, attend meetings at your calendar/magnet options if you're interested and then apply to those schools and see what happens.
Hi jsuji, have you looked at NC School Report Cards (http://www.ncreportcard.com/src/ - broken link) ... take a look at each of the reports from the schools to compare.
Cedar Fork is capped out this year and next, so I would double check your assignment for next year through WCPSS. Everyone has ONE school they are assigned to (called a base school). Registration is Feb 5th. There are other options (magnet and Year round versus traditional). Once your child is registered at their base on Feb 5th, the magnet aplications are available ONLINE only on Feb 9th.
