Magnet School Lotteries Performed!
The Northwest Suburban Integration School District Magnet
Lottery for the 2018-19 school year was performed the first and
second weeks of January 2018. NWSISD placed over 860
students from over 1,250 applications into 24 magnet
schools. Letters were successfully mailed to all applicants. Families
had until February 9 to contact schools and enrollment centers of
their intentions to keep their assigned placement or to go back into
the waiting pool for the Tier 2 lottery. Blaine CEMS, Coon Rapids
BioMed, and Anoka MS for the Arts had earlier assignment
deadlines due to class registration which happened earlier than the
NWSISD assignment deadline. The magnet lottery application will
close on March 9, 2018 and will reopen on March 19, 2018.
Tier 2 lottery will take place the week of March 15. Families will be notified of their Tier 2 lottery assignments the
week of March 19, 2018.
Magnet Lottery Priority Application Time Period Students who applied during the priority application period of
October 16 through December 31, 2017, will continue to have the best chance of being assigned to the magnet school
of their choice during the Tier 2 lottery.
Sibling Priority First priority will be given to the applications of siblings of students who are currently attending and
will continue to attend the same magnet school. In order to receive sibling priority status, applications must have been
received by December 31, 2017.
