ENROLLMENT AND ADMISSIONS
Enrollment
Thank you for your interest in Thomson! We have a great school community and offer a challenging and rigorous academic program.
Families interested in enrolling a child in PS/PK must meet the eligibility requirement for age and complete an on-line application at MySchoolDC.org. PS/PK attendance is not compulsory in DC, and DCPS does not guarantee seats in schools for all students. All students, in-bound or out-of-bound, must enter the lottery to obtain a seat at Thomson.
For K-5th grade, families that are in-boundary may choose to send their child to Thomson at any time during the school year. In-boundary students are guaranteed placement in K-5th grade. A child must be 5 years old on or before September 30th of the current school year to enter Kindergarten.
You can identify your in-boundary school at MySchoolDC by searching your home address on School Finder.
Open House
To enroll in Thomson, you must submit a common application through MySchoolDC.org.
