Enrolling for the 2024-25 School Year

We will begin accepting 2024-25 school year open enrollment forms for prospective students on February 5, 2024. Forms must be completed online.

2nd – 8th Grade-On grade level and above grade level standards-based assessments in Math and English Language Arts (ie. a student starting 3rd grade in the upcoming 2018-19 school year will take assessments on both 3rd and 4th grade standards), reading/math fluency assessments

All openings are on a first-come, first-served basis and enrollment openings are filled from the waiting list. This means that if you are placed on the waiting list we will contact you immediately if space becomes available. Unfortunately, we are not able to tell you what number your child is on the waiting list because lists are constantly changing based on the criteria above. Because openings are based on available space within each grade level, your child may not be testing to fill an available seat but rather to be placed on the waiting list.
