Kirkland, Wash. – Discovery Community School (DCS) has added a second parent information night, on January 24 at 6:30 p.m. Attendance at this meeting or the one that took place on January 10 is required for anyone applying to Discovery Community School. DCS is a Choice school in Lake Washington School District, which means it is open students from throughout the district. If more students apply to attend DCS than there are spaces, a lottery is held to determine who is admitted.
Because of the change in grade configuration, with district elementary schools changing from grades K-6 to grades K-5, DCS will also change its grade range to K-5 next year. Since families interested in DCS may not know about this change, an additional information night has been added to ensure that any families interested will have the opportunity to attend the meeting and subsequently apply to the school.
For more information on Discovery Community School or their application process, go to the school's website or call the school office at 425-936-2704.
