Process for Lottery
If the number of applicants to KIPP Journey Academy exceeds capacity, a random selection process will be used for admission, with first preference given to siblings of students already enrolled in the school as well as children of staff and teachers of the school. This lottery will be held on the school day following the application deadlines after which the number of applicants exceeds capacity. For example, if the number of applicants exceeds capacity during the secondary enrollment period, a lottery will be held on May 15, creating a random order of acceptance for all secondary attendance zone applicants. After May 15, seats will be filled on a first-come, first-served basis.
