Dear City School District of New Rochelle Community,
The City School District of New Rochelle is offering current New Rochelle residents Magnet placement for the 2022-2023 school year at three Magnet Schools (Barnard Early Childhood Center, Columbus Elementary School, and Daniel Webster Elementary School).
Magnet schools are founded on five pillars: diversity, innovative curriculum and professional development, academic excellence, high-quality instructional systems, and family and community partnerships. Magnet programs in New Rochelle are visionary, innovative, and open to all students. Opportunities are designed to provide students with diverse experiences in learning. Diversity is a cornerstone to offering students a global educational experience.
Entry for a Magnet lottery seat will be made available on March 9, 2022. The lottery will be managed online to make it easier for families to register once they have accepted their seat. Families will have until March 25, 2022 to enter and rank their preferences for programs and locations. Every effort will be made to accommodate families’ choices. Starting March 30, 2022, families will be notified about next steps, including registering for a specific program.
Those interested in learning more about the programs at Columbus Elementary School and Daniel Webster Elementary School are encouraged to join a Magnet Open House:
After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting.
For additional information, please contact the Office of Curriculum and Instruction at (914) 576-4622 or email csdnrk5magnet@nredlearn.org.
Sincerely,
The City School District of New Rochelle
