Enrolling Your Child for the Next School YearKindergarten and New Fall Students
Each spring Linscott offers an Open House to families interested in attending the next schoolyear. For prospective kindergarteners, there is also a special Kinder Round-Up and Kinder Parent Conference. Return in spring, 2009 for our next Open House date. Please feel free to contact our enrollment coordinator if you miss these events but would still like to apply. See Important Information below for more details about Kindergarten enrollment. Elementary and Middle School Ongoing EnrollmentEnrollment occurs on an ongoing basis throughout the year. If you have a child already in another school, or if you are moving into the area, you may contact our Enrollment Coordinator at any time during the schoolyear or summer. Like all schools, Linscott tends to have a number of openings throughout the schoolyear, and we keep an active wait list for all grades. Important Admissions InformationAdmission GoalLinscott is a California State Charter School. All children who are eligible for grades K-8 are welcome. Every effort will be made to admit families who reflect the diversity of the community, while sharing the educational philosophy of the school, as well as the commitment to full parent participation in the educational process and governance of the school. Preference will be given to students residing within the attendance area of PVUSD. In the event that more students desire enrollment than there are spaces, selection will be made by lottery, following the criteria and priorities established in the Admissions Policy. PhilosophyProspective parents will verbally articulate an understanding of, and commitment to the educational philosophy of Linscott Charter School to the teacher and/or the Enrollment Coordinator. This articulation will take place in conjunction with a discussion and review of Linscott written materials concerning educational philosophy, parent participation commitments, participation in LCS K Round-up (if applicable), and classroom observation.
