ADMISSIONS

Admission is not limited based upon ethnicity, nationality, origin, gender, income level, disabling condition, proficiency in the English language or athletic ability. There are no tuition or fees charged for attending Cornerstone Charter School. Cornerstone will admit all eligible pupils who submit timely applications.

REQUIREMENTS FOR ENROLLMENT

In order to enroll at Cornerstone Charter School parents and prospective students must schedule an appointment with the Registrar. If the student is under 18 years old, a parent or guardian must accompany the student to the appointment.

Along with a completed enrollment packet, the following documents are needed (If you are unable to provide them we will fax the previous school(s) to obtain these documents):  

• Birth Certificate, Passport, Baptismal certificate, Letter from an authorized representative of an agency having custody of the pupil, or other accepted documentation
• Immunization Records
• Official Withdrawal Form from last school attended
• Official Transcripts from last school attended
• Proof of residency documentation
• Any other documentation as specified at time of enrollment

WAITING LIST

Cornerstone Charter School  will make every attempt to accommodate students seeking admission. However, each year the Arizona Department of Education limits the number of students who can be enrolled. When the enrollment cap is met, a waiting list is established. When a space becomes available, the school will use a lottery system to determine the next student to be enrolled.

ATTENDANCE POLICIES

Regular attendance at school has been directly linked to academic success and created positive attitudes toward responsibility that will carry over into adult life. State law also requires regular attendance by students of school age (6-16). In the event of absence, parents/guardians are expected to notify the school in writing before the day of the absence, or by telephone the day of the absence. For absences greater than one day in length, the school should be notified for each day of the absence.
