Enrollment for 2016-17 School Year

Enrollment for the 2016-17 school year is underway for currently enrolled families and their siblings. Current families that are planning to continue with the school for the next school year should submit the Enrollment Application and Registration fee no later than January 29, 2016.

New family registration will begin February 1, 2016. All available spots will be filled from the wait list and families will be called in chronological order. If spots remain available after the wait list is exhausted the school will post openings on various sites.

The school fills available spots any time during the year. However, the new school year is typically the time when students move up from one classroom to another and we embark on new educational journeys. The school’s calendar will coincide with City Schools of Decatur. Therefore, students enrolling for the 2016-17 school year will begin on August 1, 2016.

The Wait List

If a class is full the school will accept wait list applications. The wait list carries over from year to year, so there is no need to reapply if your child is not enrolled during the current school year.  To place your family on the wait list please fill out the Wait List Application and return it along with the $25 application fee either in person or via mail:

The Lingua Franca Academy
9478 Golden Blossom Square
Decatur, GA 30030

General Admissions Policies

The school year generally runs from August through July. Spaces that become available during the school year will filled from the wait list.  If no wait list exits, the school will advertise open spaces through facebook, newsletters and on its website. The school will have advance registration for the following school year in January/February of each year.

The school retains the right to make decisions regarding enrollment and classroom makeup and placement based on the needs of individual children and/or the larger school community.
