Calvin Nelms Admission Policy
2010 - 2011
(Calvin Nelms Charter Schools)
Ph: 281-398-8031 Fax: 281-398-8032
All students in grades 4 – 12 in the geographical areas of Cypress-Fairbanks ISD, Fort Bend ISD, Houston ISD, Katy ISD, Lamar Consolidated ISD, Hempstead ISD, Royal ISD, Spring ISD, Stafford Municipal ISD, Tomball ISD, Waller ISD, Magnolia ISD, Bellville ISD, or Navasota ISD are eligible to apply.
Currently enrolled students will receive a Notice of Intent to Return Form during May. Currently enrolled students expressing a desire to return are automatically enrolled for the following school year upon timely receipt of the Notice of Intent to Return Form. Vacancies in each class are then determined.
Admission forms from new students are accepted May 1st through May 19th. (Monday - Friday 8:30 a.m. - 3:00 p.m.) If the number of eligible applicants does not exceed the number of vacancies, then all applicants who timely applied are offered admission. If there are more eligible applicants than available spaces in a class, then a lottery will be conducted on third Thursday in May. a name is drawn for each vacancy that exists, and each applicant whose name is drawn is offered admission. The remaining names are then drawn and placed on a waiting list in the order they were drawn. If a vacancy arises before the commencement of the school year or during the school year, the individual on the waiting list with the lowest number assignment will be offered admission. Applications are accepted throughout the year. Applications received after the May lottery will be added to the waiting list in the order they are received.
Applicants are not required to provide copies of transcripts or other academic records prior to enrollment. However, a copy of a school transcript will make it possible to more easily determine if openings are available in the courses needed by the applicant. A student will not be precluded from enrolling due to Calvin Nelms Charter School's failure to receive the information required for enrollment from the student's parent and/or previous school.
Calvin Nelms Charter Schools does not discriminate in admission based on gender, national origin, ethnicity, religion, disability, academic, artistic, or athletic ability, or the district the child would otherwise attend.
Please call Ms. Peggy Caldwell at 281-398-8031 or email at pcaldwell@cnchs.net with any phone number(s) or e-mail changes.
