School Choice 2025

Beginning March 1, 2025, ALL Florida residents (who live inside and outside of Martin County) will have the opportunity to apply to attend any school in the Martin County School District for the 2025-2026 school year.

Per School Board policy, Martin County students are given priority over students who do not reside in Martin County. Students accepted into a school inside the Martin County School District can continue attending through the highest grade level offered on the school’s campus. Families should note that students attending an out-of-zone school must provide their own transportation. 

Families interested in applying can find additional details here. To apply for enrollment beginning March 1, 2025, families must complete the online application found in the FOCUS Parent Portal. 

If your Student is New to the Martin County School District:

If a family is new to the Martin County School District, they will first need to complete the Pre-Registration for Enrollment Form in the FOCUS Parent Portal. This form will show up in the FOCUS Parent Portal immediately after a parent registers for FOCUS.

For instructions on how to register for the FOCUS Parent Portal, click here. For instructions on how to complete the Pre-Registration for Enrollment Form, click here.

Once the Pre-Registration for Enrollment Form has been completed, families can then complete the "Fall Enrollment Application 2025" located under their child's name in the left-side menu.

Current MCSD Students Wishing to Attend an Out-of-Zone School:

If you are a current MCSD student wishing to attend a school other than the school you are zoned for, you do not need to complete the Pre-Registration for Enrollment Form. Please proceed by logging into the FOCUS Parent Portal and completing the Fall Enrollment Application 2025 in the left side menu.

If you are planning to attend your home-zoned school, or the same school that you attended during the 2024-2025 school year, you do not need to complete the Fall Enrollment Application 2025.
