No. Our online application will provide an option to apply to either or both of our ASA campuses. Applying for a spot at both of our campuses will not have any effect on your chance for placement at either location.

No. Being enrolled at one campus does not give a priority when applying to another campus.

No. Once enrolled, a student may attend ASA through the end of 8th grade. Each spring, families of currently enrolled students will be asked to complete Returning Student Registration to help us know if we will have vacancies in our grade levels in the following school year.

If a lottery is needed (Education Code 47605[e][2]), the date of the lottery will be communicated after the conclusion of open enrollment.

Following the Open Enrollment period, all applications received during this time will be counted to determine if any grade level has received more applications than available seats for the upcoming school year. If the number of applications exceeds the available spots, a random public lottery will be held, on a published date in the spring to determine enrollment and waitlist status for the impacted grade levels.

• At the conclusion of the public random lottery, all students who were not granted admission will be placed on a wait-list according to their draw in the lottery, except if the preferences described above require otherwise. 
• Once the school year begins, sibling preference applies to students on the wait-list who are siblings of students currently enrolled. The wait-list will allow students the option of enrollment in the case of an opening. 
• Under no circumstance will a wait-list carry over from one year to the next. Students remaining on the wait-list at the end of each school year must go through the open enrollment process for the following school year if they remain interested in attending the school. 
• Families need not be present to participate in the lottery drawing. Families promoted from the wait-list will be contacted when there is an opening. 
• Contact may include email, personal phone call, and/or U.S. Postal Service. 
• Parents/Guardians will have five (5) business days from the date of first notification to respond if the offer was made prior to school beginning. In addition, the school will attempt on at least one (1) additional occasion to contact the parent(s)/guardian(s) of students promoted from the wait-list during the five (5) days.
• Those families not responding within the five (5) days will forfeit their right to enroll their student in the school, and the next student on the wait-list will be contacted to fill the open position. 
• Parents who forfeited their right to accept enrollment when offered, but are still interested in enrolling at ASA Thrive at another time must reapply.

Siblings of students placed in a spot during the random public lottery will also be placed IF there is an available spot in the given grade level during the lottery. If space is not available in the sibling’s grade level, that sibling will be placed on the Sibling Priority waitlist. The remaining names will be placed on a waitlist based on the order drawn in the lottery for each grade level.

After the lottery is conducted, you will receive an email with either an offer of an available seat or your child’s waitlist number. You may also log into your online application portal at any time to see your child’s current waitlist number. Families are invited to attend the lottery, however attendance is not required.

After the lottery, you may also log into your online application portal at any time to see your child’s current waitlist number. The waitlist updates in real time. 

PLEASE NOTE If your child is on the waitlist and his or her position has moved down a position or two, it is most likely due to another applicant on the same grade level waitlist becoming eligible for sibling priority. If a sibling is placed on the sibling priority list, that student moves to the top of the waitlist for that grade, thus causing other non-sibling applicants to move down a spot on the waitlist. 

In order to ensure that your child is fully enrolled, you are required to complete any necessary paperwork by the deadlines set by the school. This will include:

• Admission Application, Home Language Survey, and Emergency Medical Information Form;
• Copy of current Immunization record;
• Proof of birth date;
• Proof of parent identification;
• Proof of grade level, if applicable (something from your child’s current school that shows their name, school name, grade level and the school year.)
• Copy of student’s IEP or 504 Plan, if applicable - This information helps the school prepare to give your child the best education possible starting on day one;
• Parent signature on Technology Use Agreement, Release and Waiver of Liability, Assumption of Risk Form, and Photograph/Media Waiver;
• Emergency Contact Information;
• Oral Health Assessment for Kindergarten; 
• and 190 Report of Health Examination for School Entry.
