All applicants’ names are put into a lottery during the week of March 2. The principal along with a certified notary public pulls names at random based on the number of available seats.

3. Family Orientation

Prospective students participate in whole group activities, small group centers and
one-on-one screenings to assess school readiness. During this time, prospective
families hear from school leaders about the pre-kindergarten program and school
expectations and take a campus tour.

4. Family Interview

Accepted families meet with the principal to discuss expectations, ask questions,
provide final enrollment paperwork and review next steps.

5. Acceptance Letter

Pre-kindergarten applicants are notified about whether they’ve been accepted
or placed on the wait list through a mailed letter and by email.

6. Submit Enrollment Paperwork

Finish and submit all required documents by the enrollment deadline. Families who
do not complete all steps may be placed at the bottom of the waitlist.
