Broward County Public Schools (BCPS) is excited to announce School Choice Phase II applications for the 2018/19 school year will be accepted beginning May 1, 2018.
During the School Choice Phase II application process, parents and guardians may submit applications for magnet programs and school reassignments at schools with available seats following the initial School Choice application window, which took place earlier this school year.
This year, Phase II is divided into multiple application periods to provide families with quicker notifications regarding the status of their child’s application (see chart below).
Online Applications May Be Submitted | Application Status Notification | |
May 1 – May 8, 2018 | May 24, 2018 | |
June 1 – June 8, 2018 | June 21, 2018 | |

Please note:
Families of students placed in a waitpool following the Phase I application window, do not need to submit another application for Phase II, unless a different school or magnet program is desired.
Families applying for the first time during Phase II, only need to apply during one of the application periods listed above. If a student is placed in a waitpool, the application remains active during the entire Phase II process.
