Middle School
Like most parents with children who are already enrolled in a public or private elementary school, you are probably taking a breather from the NYC school admissions process. If your child is enrolled in a school with an on-going middle school program, then you can relax a lot longer. For those who are considering changing schools (including those dissatisfied with their on-going middle school program), try not to breath easy too long!
When to Apply
It is very important that you start this process early. Most of New York City's middle school programs begin in 5th or 6th grade. The best time to start your research is in the spring semester of your child's 3rd grade or in the fall semester of 4th grade. This way you will not be shut out of the public or private school admissions process.
