School Lottery Postponed to April This Spring

School Choice Season Postponed One Month

The Eugene School District's school choice season is coming up — and so are school board decisions about whether to close and consolidate several schools.

Because sustainable budget decisions in late January may involve changes in schools and attendance areas, the board has postponed the school choice application period and placement lottery for the 2011–12 school year by about a month.

The school choice application period will begin in early February instead of early January, and  the deadline for school choice request forms to be considered in the annual school choice lottery will be in April rather than March. The revised school choice timeline applies to this year only.
