    The JMS Lottery opens every fall in October for the following school year. 

    • Families with current lottery elementary students should complete a CPS Lottery Transfer request.  These forms are managed by the lottery elementary schools.
    • Families with current JMS students wishing to enroll a sibling:
      • Your students must attend Jefferson Middle School the same year to qualify for a sibling request
      • You will need to complete a Sibling Transfer Request form and turn it in to the registrar at JMS
    • Families residing outside of the Jefferson Middle School attendance area are encouraged to apply for the lottery . 

    *Transportation is provided for all lottery students.

    *Once a student is accepted through the lottery process, they will be eligible to attend JMS for the remainder of their middle school career. If a lottery family moves, they should notify the registrar as soon as possible with updated proof of residency (POR) or update their address via and upload their current POR.
