San Jose Highly Gifted Has 5th Grade Openings

Posted by: magnetangel on: September 14, 2011

Just a note to parents who might still be on wait lists for Balboa, San Jose Highly Gifted has four or five openings in fifth grade for the 2011-2012 school year.  And I’ve heard parents who have been contacted by the Global Awareness Magnet in Woodland Hills at Lockhurst (?) Elementary with openings.  That magnet did not get created quickly enough to make the Choices brochure, so it would appear they have openings in a few grades.

Just a question about getting into a magnet program with openings if you are on a wait list at another magnet program. How would that work? Are you allowed to submit another Choices application for the magnet that has openings?

If a family were to accept an opening at a school with openings, you don’t need to fill out another application. You just go in and fill out the paperwork. You would no longer be on the wait list for the original school. Since today is norm day, this is probably the last chance to get in to these programs for 2011-12.
