Admissions

Updated 7mo ago

Sobesky Academy is a Jeffco option school/Alternative Education Campus (AEC), so families generally enroll through Jeffco’s EnrollJeffco system (some AECs may also use direct placement—contact the school/district for Sobesky-specific placement options). (sobesky.jeffcopublicschools.org) To apply, create/log into an EnrollJeffco account, add your student, and submit applications (up to three schools per student), then respond to any offer and complete registration steps in EnrollJeffco. (jeffcopublicschools.org) Key dates for the 2026–27 school year are: Round 1 open Dec 2, 2025–Jan 9, 2026 with results sent Jan 20, 2026; Round 2 opened Jan 15, 2026 and runs through Aug 28, 2026. (jeffcopublicschools.org) After accepting an offer/confirming a seat, new-student requirements include uploading four documents: parent/legal guardian photo ID, student identity document (e.g., birth certificate/passport), immunization records, and proof of address, followed by completing household registration. (jeffcopublicschools.org) Waitlist/offers are communicated by email/text; Round 1 uses a lottery (submission time doesn’t affect priority), while Round 2 offers/waitlists are ordered within a “priority group” by submission time, but the public EnrollJeffco pages do not list the specific priority categories (they refer families to district choice-enrollment policy).
