Cedar Hill ISD Longhorn Insider September 2017 | Page 8

BECOME A LONGHORN TODAY CHISD is an open enrollment district. Students who live outside its boundaries may apply and are accepted throughout the year. How to Enroll Middle School Academies Go to chisd.net/register. Click New to District if the student has never attended CHISD. Follow the steps. In August the district opened the Bessie Coleman Middle School Environmental Science & Engineering Academy and the W.S. Permenter Middle School Entrepreneurship & Design Academy. Students are enrolled based on their interest level and at the principal’s discretion. An application and other details will be posted on the district website in January. If the student has attended a Cedar Hill ISD school in the past, click Returning Student and follow the directions. For example, a fourth-grader who attended CHISD, left to attend another district for fifth grade and wants to return to CHISD for sixth grade is a returning student. Collegiate Pathway The CHISD Collegiate Pathway begins in Pre-K and ends with an associate degree. Collegiate Prep Elementary, Collegiate Academy Middle School and Collegiate High School accept students through a lottery. Students who graduate Collegiate High School may simultaneously earn a high school diploma and associate degree at no cost to the family. In January the district posts application information on chisd.net. 8
