Hamilton County Schools will be hosting the 2025-26 School Choice Fair this Thursday from 5:30-7 p.m. at the East Brainerd Annex (formerly the Cigna Building) at 7555 Goodwin Road in Chattanooga.
Officials said, "We encourage families who are interested in schools or programs outside their zone school to come out and visit. The full list of schools and programs participating can be found on our Hamilton County website (Available Choice Seats - Hamilton County Schools (hcde.org)).
"Families will be able to visit with schools that have Open Enrollment, Magnet, Future Ready Institutes & Pathways, Workforce Development & College Schools and charter seats.
Representatives from each of these schools/programs will be available to answer your questions so that you can make a thoughtful and informed decision for your student."
The School Choice Lottery Application will open on Nov. 18 and run through Jan. 31, 2025. Links to the application can be found on the HCDE website once it opens. If you have any questions, please reach out to the School Choice Office at 423-498-6762.
