For the 2025-26 school year, application/drawing forms must be received by February 27, 2026 at 12:00am, and the lottery will be held on March 3, 2026.

- Beginning with the highest grade, the ballots shall be drawn by a Charter School administrator or Board
- The drawing shall continue until all names for that grade level are drawn.
- Those individuals whose names are drawn after all spaces have been filled will be placed on the waiting list in the order drawn.

Families promoted off of the waiting list shall be informed by telephone and in writing and shall have a maximum of seven (7) calendar days to respond.

Those families not responding within the maximum response period will forfeit their right to enroll their student in the Charter School for that school year.
