In general, students who want to attend a high school must meet certain criteria, such as having a certain grade point average or test scores, and living in the school's attendance zone. Some high schools may also have additional requirements, such as a portfolio of work or an interview.
If a student meets all of the requirements for admission to a high school, they will typically be offered a place at that school. However, if there are more students who meet the requirements than there are available spaces, the school may hold a lottery to determine which students are admitted.
It is important for students to start planning for high school early, especially if they are interested in attending a particular school. They should talk to their guidance counselor and parents to learn about the requirements for admission to the schools they are interested in and to start working on meeting those requirements.
