Athenian Academy Announces the 2024-2025 Enrolment Process
We are excited to announce the opening of the enrollment period for the Athenian Academy’s 2024-2025 school year! Parents eager to secure a spot for their children can begin submitting applications from February until October 1, 2024. This comprehensive guide will walk you through the essential details of our enrollment process.
Key Dates and Application Details
The application window opens in February 2024 and will remain accessible until October 1, 2024. To ensure a smooth and timely submission, please mark your calendars and prepare all necessary documents ahead of time. It’s important to note that applications submitted after the October 1 deadline will typically not be considered for the lottery.
Online Application Process
In our commitment to accessibility and convenience, Athenian Academy utilizes an online application system. This streamlined process allows parents to submit their applications from the comfort of their homes. Detailed information and application links are available on our website, covering both campus enrollment and blended education options.
Fair and Transparent Lottery System
To maintain fairness and transparency, Athenian Academy employs a lottery system when the number of applicants exceeds the available seats. This ensures that every applicant has an equal opportunity to enroll, regardless of when the application is submitted within the designated period. The lottery is conducted after the application period closes, typically in early October.
Notification of Lottery Results
Parents will be informed of the lottery results via email. This notification will detail whether their child has been accepted, placed on a waitlist, or not selected for enrollment. For those placed on the waitlist, updates will be provided as spots become available.
Managing the Waitlist
While we strive to accommodate as many students as possible, some campuses may reach capacity. Waitlists are updated regularly, particularly when openings arise due to student withdrawals or declines. Parents of students who are offered a spot from the waitlist will be notified via email and will have a specified period to complete the necessary enrollment documentation.
Enrollment and Acceptance Procedures
Once a student is selected through the lottery, an enrollment packet will be sent to the parents. This packet must be completed and returned within the specified timeframe to secure the student’s place at Athenian Academy. Required documentation includes the student’s grade, date of birth, address, emergency contact information, and a signed computer agreement, along with a birth certificate and immunization records.
Ensuring Communication and Transparency
We prioritize clear and consistent communication with all applicants. Parents will receive detailed information about the lottery process and their application status via email. Additionally, our website offers comprehensive resources and contact information for any questions or concerns.
Capacity and Application Demand
Athenian Academy currently has a capacity of 800 students. The number of new students accepted each year depends on the number of available spots, which varies based on current enrollment and graduating students. Typically, the number of applications exceeds the available seats, underscoring the importance of the lottery system.
Support for Special Circumstances
Our lottery process is designed to be fair and equitable. While it does not include special considerations for students with disabilities or special needs, Athenian Academy is committed to providing support and accommodations once students are enrolled.
