Application Process Overview

Lusher Lower School (K-5) admissions are based on a two-part system. In-district (neighborhood) and community (city-wide & Tulane) spots are based upon availability. District applicants have a different application form and process. Community applicants who also live in the Lusher district must submit a separate application for the district. The district process runs February 13 to March 14 from 9 a.m to 3 p.m. and on March 15 from 9 until noon.

Lusher Middle School (6-8) first admits current 5th grade Lusher students. Remaining seats are filled with candidates who have applied through the community application process.

Lusher High School (9-12) first admits current 8th grade Lusher student. Remaining seats are filled with candidates who have applied through the community application process.

The application process for the 2012-2013 school year begins October 10, 2011. Applications will be available online or at the school campuses.

Grades K-5 completed applications with all documentation attached should be submitted to the Willow Campus office at 7315 Willow Street no later than NOON, January 13, 2012.

There are benefits to applying and testing early; all applicants completing the testing process by December, 2011 will receive early notification of the applicant’s matrix score and know if the child is qualified to continue in the application process. Anyone testing in January will not receive information until spring.
