STEP 1: Enroll Jeffco

Visit EnrollJeffco. Follow the prompts to indicate if your student plans to attend their assigned neighborhood school (K-12), or would like to apply to one or more other schools of your choice, including Summit South.

For choice enrollment, you may apply to as many schools as you would like. Remember, this is an application. Acceptance to a choice school is based on space availability.

STEP 2: Accept or Decline

You will hear from each of the schools to which you applied within a few days. The email you receive will contain a notification indicating (a) an offer to attend the school, or (b) information about your student's wait-list placement. You will have three days to accept or decline any enrollment offers received. If wait-listed, your student will remain on the waitlist until you remove their name from consideration or you receive an enrollment offer

STEP 3: Infinite Campus

The Infinite Campus Parent Portal Page has replaced Jeffco Connect! You will use this to indicate your family's contact information. Use the new Personal Account Manager (PAM) to recover or reset your parent/guardian logins.

Verify that the Parent/Guardian contacts you have entered are in the correct order of contact. This information is what we use in case of emergency and for regular email updates.

Visit Jeffco Help for more information on this new system.

1. Current students and staff children.

2. Siblings (lottery if necessary). Sibling priority will be given to prospective students if they have a currently enrolled sibling at Summit South who intends to return the following school year. Any student who receives an enrollment spot because of sibling priority will have their spot rescinded should the currently enrolled sibling withdraw or transfers before the start of the following school year.

3. Choice enrollment, first round in-county (lottery), and qualifying siblings of students admitted during this process.

4. Choice enrollment, first round out-of-county (lottery), and qualifying siblings of students admitted during this process.

5. Choice enrollment, second round in-county (first come, first served), and qualifying siblings of students added to the wait lists during this process.

6. Choice enrollment, second round out-of-county (first come, first served), and qualifying siblings of students added to the wait lists during this process.

PLEASE NOTE:  Enrolling at The Summit Academy South does not affect your enrollment status at The Summit Academy in Westminster or at Jefferson Academy in Broomfield. These schools have separate admission procedures in Enroll Jeffco, and Choice Enrollment priority admission does not transfer between the schools.

 Important Information to Note from Jeffco about Choice Enrollment in The Summit Academy South:

• 1. An approved application for Choice Enrollment shall be valid for attendance at the current school for the remainder of the current school level that the school serves - elementary, middle, or high school.

• 2. Students who wish to return to their neighborhood school or to enroll in a different school must submit a Choice Application or Administrative Transfer Request following the timelines for these applications.

• 3. All Choice Enrollment high school students must comply with all CHSAA (Colorado High School Activities Association) requirements and bylaws. A student who transfers from School A to School B without a bona fide family move will be ineligible for varsity competition in the first 50 percent of the maximum regular season contests allowed in any sport in which the student was a participant in the last twelve months. Other factors may also influence athletic eligibility.

• 4. Transportation is not provided for Choice transfers.

Sibling Priority - The Jeffco Public Schools policy allows siblings to attend the same school by giving enrollment priority to children in the same household. One sibling must currently be enrolled at the requested school and scheduled to return to the requested school. If you are applying to have your child attend a school other than his/her assigned school, requests will be approved based on space availability and there is no guarantee that your child will be able to attend any school other than the assigned school.  Parents certify that the information given in this document is true, complete, and correct.
