Steindorf Information and FAQ

Steindorf STEAM Magnet School

Steindorf STEAM School is a magnet school and serves just under 500 students, Kindergarten through 8th grade. As a magnet school, it offers Cambrian School District residents the flexibility to attend Steindorf no matter what their school attendance boundary is.

Due to more students requesting Steindorf than space available, a priority list and a lottery system will determine the order in which students will be admitted. The lottery is held sometime in early-March. All requests for Steindorf must be completed  during our "Priority Enrollment" and submitted no later than January 31, at 4 pm every year. There are no exceptions to the deadline.

Cambrian School District Board Policy & Procedure 5116.1

• First Priority: Siblings of students currently attending Steindorf and qualified Cambrian Employees
• Second Priority: Cambrian Residents
• Third Priority: Out of District Families with siblings of students currently attending Steindorf
• Fourth Priority: Out of District Families

The process to enroll in Steindorf

New Cambrian Resident Students (Students who are not currently attending a Cambrian School):

♦ In-District New Families Applying to Steindorf: If you are applying to Steindorf, you must complete Step 1. If you are not offered a seat through the lottery, you will automatically be placed at your neighborhood homeschool (if space available) and will receive a link to proceed with Step 2 of the registration process

Current Cambrian Students (Students who are currently attending a school in the Cambrian School District):

♦ Current Students Applying to Steindorf: You only need to complete School Choice Step 1. If offered a seat, the Enrollment Department will handle the change internally.

 Out of District Residents:

♦ Out-of-District New Students Applying to Steindorf :  You must complete School Choice Step 1. If offered a seat through the lottery, you will receive a link to proceed with Step 2 of the registration process.
Additionally, you must obtain an Interdistrict Attendance Permit Form from your homeschool district. This request must be approved by your District of Residence before registering at Steindorf. Approval from both districts is required for enrollment.
