2022-2023 HS Application process help and upcoming High School open house.
Open Houses
Open Houses help families decide on the programs to which they want to apply.
- Due to the current COVID19 in our district, schools have the option to conduct Open Houses either virtually or in person for the 2022-2023 school year.
- The calendar of virtual Open Houses can be accessed at the GoCPS website, under Events. Families should visit this page periodically, as additional events are added as they are submitted to the Office of Access and Enrollment by schools. On the Events page, you can view the events in order, or you can search by school or zip code.
- The way to submit open house events this year has changed slightly. The GoCPS calendar is now a part of the overall CPS calendar and so adding events will be through the calendar functionality. Once the event is approved, it will be added to the overall CPS calendar and the GoCPS website under events.
