Welcome to West Bloomfield School District's Enrollment Center
West Bloomfield School District residents can enroll K-12th grade students anytime during the year. Only a parent or legal guardian can enroll a student. If you are SOC (School of Choice), you must apply and be accepted into the District before you can enroll.
SCHOOLS OF CHOICE Application
West Bloomfield will have limited Schools of Choice openings in our STEAM program. Our application window is January 8th to February 6th, 2025, for the 2025-26 school year.
- K-5 Criteria-Based STEAM: 100 students
- 6-8 WBMS Criteria-Based STEAM: 15 Students
- 9-10 WBHS Criteria-Based STEAM: 85 Students
Please apply here during that window!
WBSD offers STEAM as a K-12 specialized criteria-based program. This programming is also offered to residents. Residents must meet the same criteria as Schools of Choice applicants in order to be accepted into the STEAM program. According to Section 105 of the State School Aid act, preference will be given to Schools of Choice applicants that meet criteria and have siblings in the district. Criteria-based testing will take place on February 7th and 8th (after the application window closes). The Lottery for those applicants that meet criteria will take place February 15th, and applicants will be notified of acceptance/non-acceptance by February 21st.
