Your 72-hour decision window

You have 72 hours (3 consecutive days) from the time your acceptance posts to accept or decline an offered seat (acceptance) in this portal. Your 72 hours start when your offer posts, which may be March 22 at 8:00 a.m. or any later day while the offer season is open. The time runs continuously for each calendar day, including weekends and holidays. If you do not respond within 72 hours (3 days), or if you decline, your student will move to the bottom of that school's waitlist and the seat will be offered to the next student. Your student may receive another offer while the offer season is open (through March 31). You may hold only one accepted seat at a time.

Fort Middle School is a Service-Learning Magnet Academy. Service-learning is a form of academia that combines meaningful hands-on community service with the knowledge and skills acquired in the classroom in order to give your child an enriched, interactive, well-rounded learning experience. By engaging in service-learning projects throughout the course of their time at Fort Middle School, it is our goal to promote the intellectual, social, emotional, and physical development of students in a safe, yet challenging environment. Such experiences provide the student with the opportunity to connect the dots between academic standards and life skills, in addition to exposing them to the realm of social action and community-based service, all in an effort to assist them in becoming confident, disciplined and productive members of society.
