Oklahoma City Public Schools Enrollment information for students interested in application schools or transferring into the district
Which Oklahoma City Public School (OKCPS) District schools accept students by application and when is the deadline? OKCPS is proud to offer five application school sites to families: Belle Isle Enterprise Middle School, Classen School of Advanced of Studies Middle School, Classen School of Advanced Studies High School at Northeast, Southeast Middle School and Southeast High School. Applications for the 2024- 2025 school year are due Feb. 16. Every school site requires an application for new students. Application requirements vary from program to program, but most require an essay, letters of recommendation and previous report cards and test scores. Students who are accepted into a middle school program do not have to reapply to the corresponding high school program. Applicants interested in the arts programs at Classen SAS will be required to audition and/or provide a portfolio of work. The Belle Isle Enterprise program is slated to expand with the addition of Belle Isle Enterprise High School, opening in fall 2026. Outside of application schools, how can families in other districts transfer their children into OKCPS? OKCPS offers a wide array of programs that give all students the opportunity to reach their full potential. From full-day PreK without a lottery or waitlist to our specialized and advanced academic programs, we are a district of choice for OKC families. Families interested in transferring into OKCPS should visit okcps.org/transfers to learn more and begin the process.
Two years ago, our oldest child started at an OKCPS application school and based on her positive experience, we made the decision to transfer our younger elementary-age children into the district this school year. We love that they are challenged academically and supported as individuals, plus we appreciate their access to the arts, STEAM and social-emotional learning. OKCPS has exceeded our expectations and we are grateful to be part of the district! Erin P., parent
