AICE & IB Programs of Choice

• Only students from BTHS, CHS, PVHS, and SJTHS can apply to AICE or IB at any school.
• Students zoned for NHS, PMHS, and SAHS can only apply to AICE or IB at their zoned schools

as a part of the application process.

• Students applying to any program in addition to AICE or IB should choose the other

program/s first and AICE or IB as their last choice. (Students can choose up to 3 options.)

• AICE & IB applicants are pre-approved or denied prior to the lottery based on their academic
• performance. All who are deemed eligible are accepted.
• The lottery is simply used as an electronic application for tracking purposes.
• Once students zoned for NHS, PMHS and SAHS are accepted into other programs at other

schools (after Feb. 22), they become a student of that new school for 2019-20. If they then wish to be considered for AICE or IB, they should contact the AICE/IB office at that new school directly. This is done AFTER TER & & OUTS UTSIDE E of the Program of Choice Application Process.

• The same process holds true for JROTC and VyStar Academy of Business & Finance programs.
