Admission to The Alice King Community School is by lottery. Participation in The Alice King Community School’s admission lottery is open to students throughout New Mexico. Current Alice King Community School students are automatically entitled to enroll the following year without participation in the lottery. Siblings of currently enrolled students will have priority for admission in future years, subject to space availability.
Lottery Policy
As a public charter school The Alice King Community School’s admissions policy is governed by Federal and State laws which stipulate that student admission be determined by lottery. The order of preference is as follows:
| 1st Preference: | Returning Students |
| 2nd Preference: | Students Returning from Approved Leave of Absence |
| 3rd Preference: | Siblings of Returning Students |
| 4th Preference: | Students Who Enter the The Alice King Community School Admissions Lottery |
The lottery does not guarantee admission. The lottery determines preference in filling available spots based upon the order in which names are drawn. Once a grade level is filled, any remaining names are placed on a waiting list – for that school year – in the order in which their names were drawn in the lottery.
Lotteries are determined by the Principal, based upon enrollment needs and taking into account the order of admissions preference listed above.
Anyone who is interested in attending the lottery is welcome to attend.
Once a student is accepted by any of the preference criteria listed above, he or she must complete and submit a series of registration forms. Failure to comply with this requirement will result in a student’s losing his or her place at The Alice King Community School.
