Lottery information

Kindergarten applicants who are legally identified as a sibling of a current student attending grade K-4 in GBLUES and living at the same residence, will be enrolled first in kindergarten. Parents will still need to complete a Lottery Registration Application by May 1 to have a spot reserved.

Should more students apply than openings in any grade, there will be a lottery to determine which students get those openings.  The rest of the students will be put on a waiting list in the order determined by the drawing in case any spots become available in the future.
