Enroll Your Child Today!

ENROLL TODAY!
Student registration for our next school year will be accepted in January 2023.

Our tuition-free public charter school serves families in all nearby counties and accepts enrollment forms on an on-going basis.
Should the number of enrollment forms received exceed our current student capacity for a given school year, students will be placed on a wait list and entered into a lottery for future open seats, as necessary.

Families on our waitlist will be notified by June if any openings have occurred.
