Hi, I am looking for a link to register for my little son to test for the elementary school.

He is in kindergarten currently. I heard south loop elementary school magnet program and skinner school will have a test this December.

Thanks for the help.

You need to download an Options for Knowledge application from CPS's website. You can apply for up to 6 selective enrollment schools. If you're on the northside, Bell's gifted program also starts at 1st grade. After you apply they will mail you a test date. They test in December and the beginning of January at IIT.

Yep - here are some more details.

Online registration for selective admissions schools is here. They will send you a PIN in the mail and then you apply to the selective admissions schools you choose online. All selective schools require a test, and they'll schedule that once they process your application.

Magnet schools are still handled by mail in registration. You can download a PDF of the application here. The deadline is December 17th. Magnet school admission is primarily by lottery.

Thank you very much, Attrill and surlycue. Those are nice information. I missed last year application deadline, this time, we will do it early.
