How to Enroll at Carbon Valley Academy
Lottery Process
Students currently enrolled at Carbon Valley Academy will have priority for the next year's enrollment. Siblings of children already enrolled, with the exception of any child who previously declined enrollment, or has withdrawn from the waiting list. For students entering Kindergarten, priority will be given to those currently enrolled in the CVA preschool.
A "sibling" is defined as any child(ren) living in the same household or with common parent(s) in separate households. Any sibling born while a student is enrolled may retain that status even if the original student graduates from Carbon Valley Academy before he/she reaches kindergarten. Any sibling offered a position in the first semester must enroll that child or forfeit their sibling position. At that time siblings become subject to general lottery rules. If offered a position in the third quarter, the sibling may decline to enroll and still retain their sibling priority for the following school year.
The lottery will be governed by the following rules:
- Lottery will take place monthly (the last business day of the month) in accordance with Colorado Department of Education policies.
- Prior to enrolling in the lottery, a parent must attend an orientation meeting, complete a registration form and agree to abide by CVA's policies. Each child may only enter the lottery for one grade level each year.
- All students will be placed on an 'order drawn' list that will become the wait list for openings through the year.
- Each lottery wait list will remain active for only one school year (annualized each January). All students must re-enter the lottery each spring to be placed on the current wait list for the following school year.
- CVA will enter Kindergarten students into the lottery no sooner than the January before their Kindergarten year.
- CVA will abide by Colorado Statutes regarding open enrollment.
Important information regarding priority enrollment for the 2012/2013 school year is available here.
