  1. Good evening. I am very interested in my son jaxen granger to attend this school when he starts 6th grade next year. He is in the beta club, violin class, book club and has several referrals from teachers and the principal on how great he is at school academically and behavior wise. I am trying to add this school to his school choice lottery application but i have not had a response so is there any other way for me to be able to add this school on there and to set up an audition? I would appreciate any info. Thankyou.
