OneApp Main Round for 2021-2022 School Year Set to Close

Closes Friday, January 29, 2021

(New Orleans – January 20, 2021) – NOLA Public Schools (NOLA-PS) would like to remind families the main round of OneApp closes Friday, Jan. 29, 2021. OneApp is the annual unified application process for children wishing to attend most public schools in New Orleans. New Orleans families can apply anytime until the application closes on Jan. 29, 2021.

Families will be informed of their students' placements in late March or early April.

"Last year, we adjusted the timeline to announce placements because our families and schools made it clear that knowing sooner where students were going was immensely helpful to them as they planned their school years. We'll keep that going this year, too, to best serve our school families," said NOLA-PS Superintendent Dr. Henderson Lewis, Jr. "We know that switching from or starting at a new school can be challenging, and we want to better serve families by ensuring they know where their student will be attending school earlier."

Releasing results earlier assists schools in facilitating record transfers, finalizing student rosters, and supporting transitions in a timely manner.

Through our unified enrollment system, NOLA-PS provides students and families the opportunity to choose a school that best suits their interests and needs through a centralized enrollment process and a single application. This speaks to the NOLA-PS vision of ensuring every student receives a high-quality education that fosters his or her individual capabilities.


Most families do not need to reapply to stay at their current school for next year.


Families need to submit a OneApp application for the 2021-2022 school year, if their student meets any of the following criteria:

Before submitting an application for the next school year, NOLA-PS encourages families to research school choices. To assist in this process, we provide several resources:

Families that do not participate in the Main Round are welcome to participate in the second round of OneApp, which is scheduled to open one week after the Main Round results are released in late March or early April.
