Thank you for your interest in DC Public Schools!

DC Public Schools is proud to offer nearly 6,000 seats for three- and four-year old children across 86 schools. Though students are not required to attend preschool or pre-k by law, DCPS places a strong value on early childhood education. We strive to make seats in these grades available to as many families as possible in a fair and equitable way through the preschool/pre-k lottery. All families wishing to secure a preschool or pre-k seat in a DCPS school must apply through the Preschool/Pre-K Lottery.

The Out of Boundary Lottery is a service offered by DCPS to allow parents to apply for available seats at a school or schools(s) other than their child’s assigned school(s). This lottery is not for children who attend their current school as out of boundary students or for those seeking admission to selective citywide high schools.

Before applying to a lottery, please visit our school profiles page and consider attending an open house to better familiarize yourself with our wonderful schools!
