2025-2026 Elementary & Middle School Choice
In accordance with School Board Policy JBC, Spartanburg County School District 6 is offering limited school choice, grades 5K-8th, for the 2025-2026 academic year based on the availability of space within specific grade levels at each elementary and middle school in the district. You may request that your child attend a school other than his or her zoned school by completing and submitting an application form to the Office of Student Services once the application window has opened.
- Rising 5K through 5th, 7th, and 8th grade applications should be submitted no later than March 28, 2025. All parents, regardless of their student’s grade level, will be notified of the status of their request no later than June 20, 2025.
- Rising 6th grade applications should be submitted no later than March 22, 2025. If possible, parents of rising 6th graders will be notified of the status of their request prior to 6th grade orientation so that the student may attend orientation at the middle school he or she will attend.
NOTE: For the 2025-2026 school year, there may be no available space for school choice at certain elementary and middle schools due to the number of students attending in that school's attendance zone.
If your request for school choice is granted, your student must remain at the chosen school for the entire school year and may remain there through the final grade in the school. Please be aware that it is the responsibility of the family to provide transportation to and from the requested school outside of your student’s attendance zone. You must also have your student at school on time and picked up promptly at dismissal. Students must not have excessive tardies (no more than 10 unexcused tardies) in order for the transfer to remain in effect. Also, students are expected to maintain an acceptable academic, discipline, and attendance record (no more than 10 unexcused absences). A principal may choose to revoke transfer privileges should a student fail to meet these expectations. If you agree to the above requirements and wish to make an official request that your child attend a school other than his or her zoned school, please complete and submit the form, when made available, by March 28, 2025.
