Thank you for your interest in East Metro Integration District #6067. Families who live within the attendance areas of the following school districts may apply to send their grades K-10 children to our schools: South St. Paul; West St. Paul; Inver Grove Heights; N. St. Paul/Maplewood/Oakdale; Roseville; White Bear Lake; St. Paul; Mahtomedi; South Washington County; and Stillwater.

Applications: Applications are now available for the 2008-2009 school year. Applications to be processed in the lottery are taken January 2, 2008 through March 7, 2008. Our schools conduct a computer-generated lottery for student applicants within this time frame. There is not a first come-first serve process. Notification of acceptance or waiting list status will be done via U.S. mail the first week of April 2008. All applications received after March 7, 2008, will be added to the waiting list in the order in which they are received.

Sibling Preference: Our schools honor sibling preference; therefore, siblings of current Crosswinds and Harambee students will be accepted first, as space is available, and then additional spaces will be filled with students from the lottery.

If you have any questions regarding the application process, you are welcome and encouraged to direct them to the contacts listed below:
