What is Dyslexia?

Divider

Louisiana state law defines dyslexia as "an unexpected difficulty in reading for an individual who has the intelligence to be a much better reader, most commonly caused by a difficulty in phonological processing, which affects the ability of an individual to speak, read, and spell.” "Phonological processing" means the appreciation of the individual sounds of spoken and written language. - Louisiana Act 206

Open Enrollment and Lottery

Divider
  • When the Open Enrollment period ends, we compare the number of eligible and completed applicants to the number of available seats in each grade level.

  • If more seats are available than eligible and completed applicants, we accept all eligible children who applied during Open Enrollment.

  • If we have fewer seats available than eligible and completed applicants, an electronic lottery will be used to randomly select which eligible applicants get a seat and which eligible applicants are placed on the waiting list.

  • Children who apply after Open Enrollment closes are processed in the order their applications are received. Pending completion of the application process and meeting eligibility requirements, students are placed on the appropriate list - accepted or waiting list.

  • If your child is on the waiting list, don’t be discouraged! Often, seats open up throughout the summer.

All decisions by the Admissions Team

as to whether a child is a qualified student are final.
