For families who live outside our school district boundaries, you will need to explore our choice enrollment processes.

Students whose families speak a language other than English at home should contact Multilingual Education Services at (316) 866-8000.

Students’ English language skills are tested so they are placed in the best program for their English proficiency. Programs for English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL) are available at every school. Students may be assigned a school with a newcomer program based on language proficiency and number of years in United States' schools.
