Hi everyone,
What are the chances of getting into one of the lottery schools? I have a 10-year-old and we are planning to move to Brevard next year. We would have time to apply for West Shore school, but I'm trying to find out if getting in there is a long shot, or if most kids who apply get in. If you apply for 7th and don't get in, can you try again in later years?
Are there any areas to look at that would be convenient to Westshore, but have other good public middle/high schools that would be a good backup plan?
Thank you

Satellite Beach and Viera areas. In Satellite Beach, DeLaura for middle then you'd go to Satellite High. Not sure the middle schools in Viera because some students get bused depending on what area you choose to live, but Viera High is good. If I am not mistaken they are building a new middle school for the Viera area. Sorry, I am not familiar with the Westshore Lottery system or policies.

Look into the charter schools, also . Odyssey and Pineapple both get good grades.

Do you have to live in one of the beachside areas to go to Satellite? We are looking to be more inland.

BCPS website answers your question


" Official documentation that the parent(s) or legal guardian(s) is a legal resident(s) of the school district attendance area."

The registering parent/legal guardian are required to provide two (2) forms of verification of residence at registration each year. Proof of residence may include the following:

Proof of your residence with one (1) of the following from each tier:

TIER 1

Current driver license (F.S. 322.19(2)) requires that you update your address information on your driver's license within 10 days of moving.
Current Purchase Contract (with expected closing date within 90 days of school) or Warranty Deed.
Lease/Rental Agreement with your name as the renter.

TIER 2

Current utility statement within the last 30-45 days.
Florida Voter Registration Card.
Florida Vehicle Registration or Title
A utility hook up or work order dated within 60 days.
Medical or health card with address listed.
Current homeowner's insurance policy or bill.
Current automobile insurance policy or bill.
A letter from a homeless shelter, transitional service provider or a half-way house verifying they receive mail.
For families who may be sharing housing by choice, there is a Shared Tenancy Affidavit that must be completed in order for the student to enroll and register in school. For students who may be living temporarily with another family, the in loco parentis forms has been updated to reflect a maximum of 30 days. The form may not be used in lieu of the district's ELO and EPO request process to gain admittance into a school outside the student's zoned school."
