<strong>SCHOOL</strong> CHOICE<br />

Students may choose schools in their school zone (East, North, West) or across zones if the school is<br />

located with 1.5 miles from their home. Citywide schools are also open to all students, regardless of<br />

where they reside in <strong>Boston</strong>.<br />

Types of <strong>Schools</strong> and Programs<br />

Middle <strong>Schools</strong><br />

Middle <strong>Schools</strong> are typically stand alone schools that offer educational opportunities for students in grades six,<br />

seven and eight. They are often larger than elementary schools and provide opportunities for students<br />

graduating from an elementary school to attend a bigger school with more and new students.<br />
