Enrollment Procedures and Guidelines
Oakland Academy is a Michigan public school and does not discriminate on the basis of intellectual or athletic abilities, "measures of achievement or aptitude", handicapped status, religion, creed, race, sex, color or national origin. The Academy shall not charge tuition (but may charge fees in the same manner as existing public schools). People interested in applying for the school year may obtain applications at the school office. The Academy will mail or fax applications upon request. If the number of applicants for a classroom exceeds the number of positions available, the Academy will hold a random selection lottery at the school. The random selection drawing shall be open to the public. All applicants will be notified of the time and place. Names will be drawn until all available classroom positions have been filled. The remaining names will be drawn thereafter and assigned to classroom waiting lists in the order of their selection. If applicants are still on a waiting list at the conclusion of the school year in which they applied, they must resubmit an application for the following year. After the first year, the deadline for applications shall be the last business day of February of every year. If the number of applicants for a classroom exceeds the number of positions available, a random selection lottery shall be held on or about March 15. Siblings of students already enrolled in the school will have preference for any openings. Once children are enrolled, they will remain eligible to be enrolled at the Academy for successive years without having to reenter the selection process. They must, however, reenroll for the subsequent year no later than the last business day in February. |
