How does a family enroll a child in a charter school in NJ?
Families apply to enroll their child at a charter school. If there are more applications to enroll in the school than there are spaces available, the charter school must select students using a random selection process called a lottery. N.J.S.A. 18A:36A-8(a). We encourage families to contact the charter school of their choice as early as possible to inquire about their application and enrollment procedures.
