Lottery Details
If the number of applications exceeds the capacity of a program, class, grade level, or building, all eligible applicants shall have an equal chance of being admitted through a random selection process that complies with Florida law. The lottery will create a primary list of students and the initial waiting list from the students who have applied. Numbers will be randomly chosen to decide which students will be accepted into the school openings in each class offered.
Choice Confirmation
All students who are granted acceptance will be notified, sent paperwork, and will be required to submit the paperwork within 14 days. If the paperwork is not received within the deadline date, the next student on the waiting list will be granted that position. If you have questions regarding the paperwork, please call Mrs. Maria Hannaseck, RMA’s registrar at 941-462-4001 extension 1103.
