Follow these three steps to apply to District Application Programs for the 2021-2022 School Year:

Step 1: Get a Portal I.D. and Password

• If you do not already have a User ID and password for your family, go to a nearby school and  ask for one. Bring a photo ID with you.
• Only one User ID and password is needed per family.

Step 2: Apply Online Jan. 6 - Jan. 15 before 5:00 PM

• Log on to the Student Reservation System (SRS) on the district’s website, https://reservation.pcsb.org, using your User ID and password

REMEMBER: Non-PCS students must deliver all documentation of program eligibility to Centers for Gifted Studies or high school Cambridge AICE and IB, to the appropriate program office(s) by the close of the school day on Jan. 22, 2021.

 Step 3: Accept Invitations Feb. 15 - Feb. 26 before 5:00 PM

• Log on to the Student Reservation System (SRS) with your User ID and password during this period to accept a program invitation. If you do not accept during this period, your child’s invitation(s) will no longer be valid.
• Review your child’s status in all programs to which you applied.
• It is not necessary to accept waiting list positions.
• If you accept any ONE program’s invitation during the acceptance period, the student’s name will be removed from all other lists, (except the center for Gifted Studies) including waiting lists.
