Enrollment
Procedures |
- If more forms are received
than spots are available, a lottery will determine
enrollment and waiting list order. Forms received after the
lottery draw are added to the waiting list in the order
received.
|
- If fewer forms are
received, all students will be placed. Additional forms
will be collected until the first Friday in May. If a
lottery is required it will take place on this date,
following the procedures above. This allows for the open
enrollment deadlines to be followed.
|
- If space remains after the
first Friday in May, students will be placed in the order in
which forms are received, until the spots are full.
Subsequent forms will be collected and a lottery held only
if space becomes available.
- Students open-enrolling in
AASD from other districts will be notified after May 13 (as
per Wisconsin statute) about the availability of space at
Odyssey-Magellan
|
- Odyssey students are
guaranteed a space at Magellan if they submit a Magellan
Intent to Enroll form by February 1.
|
- Magellan students have the
option to choose which Appleton High School they will
attend.
