Mountainville Academy offers enrollment for students in grades K-8 with an enrollment cap of 675 students. We comply with all federal and state laws relative to admission policies, which include an open admission, and will not discriminate on the basis of race, creed, color, national origin, religion, gender, handicap, or any other specification protected by law.
All parents wishing to enroll new students in MountainvilleAcademy must submit an Intent to Register (ITR) form which includes the required information for each prospective student. ITRs are accepted as follows:
1. Current School Year:
Please contact the school office to inquire about the availability of space for the remainder of the current school year.
2. Open Enrollment and Lottery for the Next School Year:
An Open Enrollment period, recognizing the required minimum of at least 30 days and a conclusion by the third (3rd) Friday in February, is established each year as the commencement of enrollment for the upcoming school year. Should the number of applicants exceed the space available at the school, a lottery will will be held to determine admission.
The date of the Open Enrollment period and Lottery will be posted on this website; ITRs are accepted online, however no ITRs for the next school year will be accepted before the Open Enrollment period begins.
3. Continued Enrollment for the Upcoming School Year:
After the initial Open Enrollment and possible Lottery, the school will continue to accept ITRs for the upcoming school year on an on-going basis. New ITRs received after the closing date of the Open Enrollment period will not be entered into the lottery, but will be processed in the order in which they are received and added to the bottom of the upcoming school year wait-list in the appropriate grade/priority AFTER all lotteried students and accepted as enrollment openings become available.
Submission of an ITR does not guarantee admission to, or constitute enrollment in, Mountainville Academy. Families will be notified of their acceptance when a position becomes available.
Upon notification of acceptance, families will be provided with required registration materials and a firm deadline to complete student registration. If the space remains unclaimed after the deadline, it will be offered to another student.
Parents may apply to as many schools as they wish for their children, however children may only be registered in one school at a time. If your child is accepted at more than one educational institution, i.e. charter school, private school or traditional public school, you must choose only one school in which to register him or her. Mountainville Academy works in cooperation with district and charter schools to ensure that students are not dually enrolled.
You are not prohibited from being registered in one school and maintaining wait-list status in another. It is possible for a position to open during the school year. Parents should consider in advance if they are willing to move their child mid-year or not.
