Open Enrollment - New Students!
Grades 1-8 Open Enrollment - March 26 through April 6, 2018
Mid-Year Enrollment
- Siblings of enrolled students are legally given preference.
- Prospective families attend an orientation.
- Interested families who believe Skyview School is the best choice for their child and wish to be contributing members of our school community, complete and submit an application.
- At the end of the two-week open enrollment period, the Director reviews all applications and accepts students who have completed all of the required stages and application steps.
- If the number of applicants does not exceed the number of openings, all students are sent a letter of congratulations and enrollment forms, which include the following: "Congratulations! Your child has been accepted to Skyview School. Enclosed is the enrollment paperwork. Please fill it out and return it within 10 working days, making sure you include an original birth certificate and immunization records for us to copy. Your child will be enrolled when all paperwork is completed and returned. " If you do not reply within 10 days from the date of this letter, or if you decline this offer, the available space will be offered to the student is next on the waiting list. If no answer is received or if the enrollment material is incomplete, the application becomes inactive.
- If, at the end of open enrollment, there are more students than openings, a lottery is held (this can be done by grade rather than level) and the selected students are offered enrollment. If a position is declined or a position is not accepted within 10 days of the letter's date, then new positions are offered based on the waiting list. The waiting list is determined by the date and time the completed applications are handed in. The waitlist letter is as follows: "Your child has been placed on the waitlist at Skyview School and is currently number ( ) on the waitlist. We will notify you when there is an opening. Please keep your telephone number and address updated with our office so that we can reach you when a space becomes available." Waitlisted families must respond within two working days upon receipt of an admissions offer to secure a place for their child.
- Current students who failed to re-enroll during the re-enrollment process and timeline will be considered for enrollment as a part of the open enrollment process. If a lottery is held and they are not selected, as current students at Skyview School, they are placed first on the waiting list.
Mid-Year Enrollment
- Students may be admitted throughout the school year if placements are available.
- Families follow the second and third steps outlined above for Open Enrollment.
- If there is an opening during the school year, after open enrollment, parents are sent a letter congratulating them and offering their child an available position at Skyview School. Enrollment paperwork is sent, and the parent is given up to 10 days from the date of the letter to respond and complete all of the enrollment paperwork. Failure to respond results a withdrawal of the enrollment offer and the application becomes inactive.
- If school has already begun, parents can bring in the necessary paperwork when they bring their child in the first day, but they must bring in their original birth certificate and immunization records for us to copy.
- In order to communicate regularly with waitlisted families and to revise our records, the waitlist is updated quarterly throughout the year. Letters are sent, saying: “We are updating our waitlist. If you are interested in remaining on the waitlist, please check below and return this letter immediately. If we do not hear from you within 10 working days from the date of this letter, we will assume that your family has made other plans, and your child will be removed from the waitlist.”
