Magnet Application Process and Transcripts.

The office of magnet programs will accept applications for the 2011-2012 school year from October 25, 2010 - January 10, 2011.  If your child is interested in attending one of the magnet high schools, please visit that school for an application.  Applications must be turned in to the first school of choice.


Transcripts will be issued to all Eighth graders who have been enrolled in EBR parish schools during 6th and 7th grade beginning October 20, 2010.  The transcript will include report cards for 6th and 7th grade as well as their 7th grade iLEAP scores.  This information should be attached to the magnet application.  Students will be issued only one transcript from the school and must make any additional copies. 


If you have any questions, please contact me at 388-0089 or lbarber@ebrschools.org
