Important Registration Information
Before you can enroll your child in a charter school, you must first register him or her in the school district where you reside. That district verifies your residency, and processes the registration forms. The district then arranges the transfer from their schools to the charter school.
The Registration Process
The district and the charter school are required to follow a state-mandated process for enrollment.
There is an initial recruitment period for each charter school. At the Galloway Community Charter School this period is from December 1st through January 15th. During this time, we survey enrolled students and their siblings intending to enroll (who are given preference). We determine the number of anticipated students based on the response. Then, we advertise the remaining openings for students who reside in Galloway Township. Galloway Township residents are given first preference to attend the Galloway Community Charter School.
If the number of applicants exceeds the number of vacancies, a lottery is held at the January board meeting. Vacancies are filled from the lottery.
If the lottery is insufficient to fill vacancies, there is an additional recruitment period for Galloway Township students from January 16th to July 15th. This follows the same process as the initial recruitment period, with a lottery held at the July board meeting.
