Open Enrollment has Closed for Maryland’s Public Charter Schools
(check back in October)
Charter schools give families an opportunity to choose the school experience that best fits their needs and—like every other public school—they are tuition-free for any student to attend that resides in a district that has approved public charter schools.
When charter schools have more students who want to attend than they have seats available, they use a lottery system to determine their enrollment.

The Lottery System
Charter school lotteries are usually held at the beginning of the calendar year. Please check with individual schools to confirm their lottery date. If you missed the lottery date, you can contact the charter school directly to see if you can be added to their waiting list.
