School Choice Information

About School Choice

The School Choice application for school year 2013-2014 is now available on our website.

We are excited to welcome students from other towns to take advantage of our excellent educational programs.  We are accepting applications on a rolling basis for grade levels K-12.

Applications are accepted on a lottery basis for acceptance into our schools. We will be posting additional information as to when the selection will be taking place.

Also, please take a moment to review our School Choice guidelines posted below.

Thank you for your interest in our schools!

See the packet of required enrollment forms.

Families visiting schools to register students should bring the following documentation along with the completed forms to your child’s school.

• Birth certificate
• Proof of residence (Lease/rental agreement, deed, or current real estate tax statement.  utility bills cannot be used for proof of residency.)
• Proof of physical custody (if applicable to your family situation)
• Immunization record.  Required immunizations can be found at http://www.arps.org/files/ImmunizationCertificate.pdf or by contacting the school nurse.
• A copy of a physical examination that has been given within the last six months.  If a new physical exam is required, you must provide the name of the doctor along with the date and time for which a new physical has been scheduled.

If you have any questions as your child transitions into the Amherst-Pelham Regional Public Schools, please contact Ms. Jennifer Ortiz at (413) 362-1872 or at ortizj@arps.org.
