Likelihood Of Getting In
DGS Northfield will have 186 seats for our 2026-27 6th grade. In most years, we have 5-10 rising 6th graders and 5-10 rising 7th graders move and corresponding seats available for fall 2026 7th and 8th graders.
In the 2025-26 school year, all 186 6th grade students that were accepted were either ‘in-zone’ students (reside in Central Park or Park Hill) or the children of staff members. Below is our breakdown of the current 6th grade population.
2 Children of Staff Members - 100% got in
54 In-Zone Sibling Preference - 100% got in
130 In-Zone non-sibling Preference - 63.1% got in.
Of the 130 In-zone non-sibling preference students, 17 got in off our waitlist. 10 of those 17 got in before June 1st and another 7 got in after June 1st. So, when the initial choice results were sent, students that reside in the zone and do not have staff member child preference or sibling preference had about a 55% chance of getting in. Below are additional details about choice.
*Sibling preference can be 8th to 5th grade.
**Students do not necessarily need to put DGSN #1 to get in, but families that put DGSN #2 or #3 are more likely to get their #1 choice.
***Families that live in an FRL Priority Block, which for our school is a small section of North Park Hill that traditionally is served by Smith, Hallett and some of Stedman have a preference of getting in. In 2025-26, this was 11 students.
****There are no other ways to increase the chance of getting in. Some will say Beeler Park, North of I-70, having an IEP, going to Inspire or another distinguishing factor increases the chances of getting in but this is not the case.
