Windham Academy Lottery Process:
Who should fill out the electronic lottery registration?
-
Families interested in enrolling NEW students at Windham Academy for September 2025.
-
Families with SIBLINGS of CURRENT WA students who want to enroll for September 2025 (including entering Grade K).
-
Families currently on the WAITING LIST for 2024-25 who are interested in enrollment for September 2025. The waitlist does NOT carry over from year to year.
*Please note that incoming Kindergarten students must be 5 years old by September 30, 2025. There are NO exceptions.
Parents/Guaridans of current students do NOT need to fill out this form. Intent to Return forms for current students will be sent out in January.
How are seats allocated?
-
Current students are guaranteed seats at WA for next year.
-
Siblings of current students will be first in line for any available seats after currently enrolled students.
-
Other available seats are filled from the pre-enrollment database. Should interest exceed the number of available seats for any grade, a lottery will be held for that grade.
