How Lottery Registration Works

During the Lottery Registration Window
Important:
Only request classes that students are able to attend if selected. Be mindful when requesting classes at different locations. Children within the same household may be placed at separate schools.

Elementary & Middle Lottery Results
 
Scenario A: Student Receives a Seat in a Requested Course
  • No fee - you will receive a confirmation of registration email; no further action is needed.
  • If there is a material fee - you will receive an email notifying that the student has been selected. You will need to login and "Pay Now" to complete the registration and secure your spot. 
Scenario B: Student Does Not Receive a Seat in Requested Course(s)
  • You will receive an email indicating the student has been temporarily placed on the waiting list for all courses for which they were not selected.
  • These lists will be automatically cleared shortly after the lottery has run.  We do not maintain waitlists.
Public Registration opens after the lottery concludes, beginning April 20, 2026.
Families/students can continue checking for newly available seats up until the start of Summer Learning.
