Data sheets and specific details outlining the registration process will be distributed electronically to schools as soon as the process has been approved.

7. Summary
student registrations and enrollments are currently underway.
Centralized registrations will allow us to track trends in student mobility and gain immediate access to data related to how we can best market our schools in the future.
We have been able to place 1523 more students so far this year than we did last year in total.
There are currently 850 open magnet seats. The students who remain on the waiting list are primarily special ed students, preschool students and high school students (who high schools have not completed their acceptance process for). Propose that deadline for high school acceptances be changed to April 30.
The majority of the open seats (60%) are in high school. The high schools have until June 29th to reach their floor numbers, otherwise we place students in order that they appear on the waiting list until the floor numbers are met.
We have received 166 more applications from NON SLPS students so far this year than we did last year in total.
