Pre-Kindergarten Pre-K attendance is not compulsory in Washington DC and DCPS does not guarantee spots for all students. Traditionally, demand for Pre-K spots exceeds available space at Janney. Janney uses the DCPS Pre-K lottery system to allocate available Pre-K spots. Historically all pre-K spots have gone to in-bound families. Pre-Kindergarten Registration and Lottery Registration for Janney will occur on-line this year through the DCPS website. Please register from January 28-February 28, 2010 for enrollment in Fall, 2010. For more information call the school at 202-282-0110. Individual lotteries will occur on March 2, 2010. Results will be posted on-line on March 3rd and mailed to families on March 8th. Families have until April 1 to accept their offer and until May 1st to register with the school if they wish to accept their lottery placement. Student who live in-boundary for Janney, students with siblings at Janney, and students who live within 3 blocks of Janney receive preference in the lottery - otherwise children are selected at random through an electronic system. The number of slots available for enrollment will determine the number of children selected. If more than one child from a family is entered into a school’s lottery, each child is entered individually; hence, the lottery does not guarantee that all children from the same family will be selected. In 2010-2011 there will be 3 Pre-K classes at Janney (60 spaces). During the 2009-2010 academic year there are two Pre-K classes. In the 2008-2009 academic year, there was one Pre-K class. A child must be 4 years old on or before September 30th to enter pre-Kindergarten. For more information, click here or see the DCPS website. Kindergarten-Grade 5 If a family lives in-neighborhood boundaries for Janney, parents may choose to send their child to the Janney School. Any child living in-bounds is guaranteed placement in Kindergarten-grade 5 at Janney. A child must be 5 years old on or before September 30th to enter Kindergarten. To see if you are in-bounds, click here. Enrollment forms are available here. Parents may apply to enroll their child in a school that is not their neighborhood school. Each year schools project how many spots will be available for students who live out-of-bounds for that school. Parents who live outside a specific school's boundary may apply for enrollment at these schools through the out-of-boundary process. Parents may view the projections and apply online for each child. The DCPS out-of-boundary process for SY10-11 will take place January 28 - February 28, 2010. The SY09-10 process is closed. For more information click here or call the school at 202-282-0110. Individual lotteries will occur in March 2, 2010. Results will be posted on-line on March 3rd and sent home on March 8th. Families have until April 1st to accept their lottery placement and until May 1 to complete the necessary enrollment forms. First preference for spaces in the out-of-boundary lottery is given to applicants who have siblings currently attending Janney and to students who live within a 3 block radius of Janney. Grade 6 Beginning Fall 2009, Janney will no longer have a sixth grade class. Sixth grade students may enroll at the Alice Deal Middle School.
