THE DPS SCHOOL CHOICE PROCESS

For all new students (including siblings of existing students), you will use the Denver Public School unified one-application, one-deadline system called DPS SchoolChoice which has helped simplify enrollment for families, and ensures your child an equitable chance at being able to enroll in our school.  Language and Immersion schools tend to fill available spots very quickly, so don't miss your chance!  

​

1.  LEARN more about our school through our website, virtual gallery, or in-person during our weekly tours.

2.  APPLY through the Parent Portal. To ensure your best chance of acceptance, rank the French American School as your #1 school choice (you can rank multiple schools) using the online SchoolChoice application. Fill out an online application for each individual student and sibling that you wish to have attend our school next year.  

 

3.  REGISTER with the French American School in March/April after you receive your school placement results. Waitlisted candidates will be contacted if spots open, but waitlist results do not carry over from year to year.
