Applications received after the lottery will be added to a waitlist in the order received. As space becomes available, applicants from the waitlist are notified via email.

The Open Application Period for the 2025-26 school year is from November 25, 2024, through March 10, 2025.  Prior year applications do not roll over to the next school year.  Incoming siblings of returning students will be given priority as long as a 2025-26 online application is submitted for those siblings.

Education Code 47605(d)(4)  pertaining to enrollment, lottery, and disenrollment:

• 47605(d)(4) and SB75 prohibit a charter school from discouraging enrollment or encouraging disenrollment of any pupil for any reason, and specifically for reasons based on academic performance, the pupil’s nationality, race, ethnicity, or sexual orientation, or because the pupil is disabled, academically low-achieving, an English learner, neglected or delinquent, homeless, economically disadvantaged, or foster youth. It also prohibits a charter school from requesting a pupil’s records or requiring a parent to submit the pupil’s records prior to enrollment in the charter school. If you would like to file a complaint with the chartering authority,  contact charteroffice@sandi.net and use SDUSD complaint form.
