Enrollment Process

For the 2010-2011 school year, all applications received by the January 8, 2010 deadline will be equally considered. For any grade level where we have more applicants than spaces available, we will conduct a lottery to determine admission for that grade. Applicants who are not chosen in the lottery will be placed on a waiting list and notified promptly if a space becomes available. Applicants will be notified as to the status of their application as soon as possible.

Students who submit applications after the January 8, 2010 deadline will be admitted if there are any remaining openings, or added to a waiting list. Applicant priority will be based on the order the applications are received.

Any Minnesota child in the offered grades is eligible to enroll, but parents/guardians must complete the SCPA Enrollment Form to register their children. In addition, to accept a placement we suggest that all families attend a welcoming orientation session, sign a family-school partnership agreement, and participate in informal student testing to ensure proper academic placement. We will send information about these activities to all students who are admitted.
