Student Enrollment ProceduresSchool of Dreams Academy does not discriminate against anyone regarding race, gender, national origin, color, ability level, or age. Each year SODA will open enrollment for a specified number of openings within each grade level by taking applications. The application due date will be advertized in the local newspaper, local radio station, and on the SODA website. If more students apply than can be accommodated, SODA shall admit students on the basis of a lottery. The school’s Principal will inform the Governing Council of intent to exceed the enrollment cap only if there is adequate justification, personnel, and space to do so without compromising the integrity of the school’s mission and vision. If more students apply than can be accommodated for SODA will establish a waiting list by grade level. Parents of students on the waiting list will know what number they are on the list and will be informed if an opening arises. If a parent is notified and chooses to no longer enroll their student at SODA, they must decline in writing in order for the next student to be called. If after three documented notification attempts (phone calls, registered mail) there is no response from the parent or no verification of their intent to decline the enrollment invitation, then the student will be taken off the waiting list and the next student on the list will be selected. Parents who end the year on the waiting list having not been called must submit a letter explaining their desire to continue on the waiting list.
