Admissions

For the academic year 2008 – 2009 beginning Fall, 2008, spaces will be available in grades 7, 8, 9, and 10.  The admission process takes place in January and February of 2008 and includes Admission Information Sessions (required), School Admissions Tours (optional) and filling out and turning in an Application.  

Priority in admission is given to students residing in the six secondary school districts within Franklin County and, following charter regulations, to siblings of currently enrolled students.

Applications must be received by the school by the deadline of 5 PM on February 26, 2008.  A lottery will be held on February 28, 2008 if applications exceed available spaces in any of the grades that have openings.

 Admission Information Sessions

 In order to have an application be considered complete, a prospective student and his/her parents or guardians must attend one of four scheduled Information Sessions conducted at the school. Each session lasts about an hour and a half and starts promptly. Only if there are exceptional circumstances and a request is made can an alternative meeting be set up.

These are informative sessions, with presentations by staff and opportunities for students to meet separately with some of the faculty and Four Rivers students to learn more and ask questions. While it is also an opportunity to see some of the school, no tours are held during these sessions. Applications are available and refreshments are served.

The schedule for 2008 is:

Saturday, January 12 at 10:00 a.m.

Wednesday, January 23 at 7:00 p.m.

Saturday, February 2 at 10:00 a.m.

Wednesday, February 13 at 7:00 p.m.

In case of cancellation due to inclement weather, January 16 and 26, and February 6 and 16 may be scheduled as alternatives.  Call the school to confirm.

 

 School Admissions Tours

 A limited number of school tour slots will be available on Wednesday mornings during the enrollment period, from 8:30 to 10:00 a.m., by appointment only. These are available for those who have already attended an Information Session. Call the school office at 775-4577 to set up an appointment.
