State and local guidelines require charter schools to hold a lottery whenever the number of applicants exceeds capacity. The state guidelines give priority to students who live within the boundaries of the authorizing district. If The Classical Academies host a lottery, applicants will be selected based on the lottery results, per these established priorities.
