Lottery Application 2024-2025

Lottery Application

Welcome to the Christa McAuliffe Charter School Lottery Application!

Admissions lotteries will be conducted the first Wednesday of each month, as needed, starting February 7, 2024. Lottery applications are due the Friday before the first Wednesday of each month.

The first lottery deadline is February 2, 2024 and the first lottery will be held on February 7, 2024.

If there are open seats and no waitlist, we will conduct a lottery. If there are no open seats or if there is an active waitlist, a lottery will not be held that month. However, any lottery applications from that month will be included in the next month lottery. We will continue to run lotteries until we no longer have seats to fill.

*If the lottery needs to be postponed due to weather or other emergency, the lottery will be rescheduled for the first Thursday of the month (e.g. February 8, 2024).
