2014-2015 Charter School Lottery

Lottery Applications will be accepted online at www1.pgcps.org/charterslottery from November 1, 2013- January 31, 2014.

Notes/Reminders:

• You must obtain a Prince George’s County Public School student number for your child (this number is required to complete the charter school lottery application) to obtain a student number contact the school assigned for your home address to make arrangements to obtain a student number.

• Take your child’s original birth certificate and your proof of Prince George’s County resident (you may use one of the following deed, settlement papers, lease, or rental agreement) if you have residence other than the aforementioned please call the Pupil Accounting School Boundaries Office at 301.952.6300.

• Maryland State Law requires that a child be 5 years of age on or before September 1 to enter Kindergarten. We must abide by this law; therefore, if your child will be 5 years of age AFTER September 1 you cannot apply for lottery placement to a Charter School for Kindergarten.

Greetings Imagine Leeland parent and guardians,

The Imagine Foundations at Leeland Board of Managers and Imagine Regional Staff held another productive meeting with the Vestry on Tuesday, April 8.  The Vestry negotiating team was happy to inform everyone that the full Vestry has accepted the proposed terms for the new lease and we will move forward with final drafts of the new lease document.   In light of this development, the Imagine Schools Team and the Foundations Board have requested that the Facility Use Agreement for the Berkshire campus be removed from the Board of Education’s agenda for this Thursday’s Board Meeting. Based on the discussion with Vestry, we hope to have the new lease executed by the end of April, and we are already working on improvements to the Leeland campus for next school year, including technology and security upgrades in partnership with the Vestry.  Please contact Mr. Shawn Toler, Regional Director of Maryland Imagine Schools at shawn.toler@imagineschools.com with any additional questions regarding negotiations with the Vestry.

Thank you to those who attended the Foundations Board Meeting on April 3rd at Imagine Leeland. As mentioned in the meeting we are in the process of creating a "Parent Engagement Plan" to help us better serve our parents, staff, and most importantly our students. The "Parent Engagement Plan" will ensure parents that moving forward they will have a chance to be involved in decision making that impact our students.

Please review the draft copy of the "Parent Engagement Plan" and forward your comments and feedback to bod@imagineschoolsmd,org by 5 pm (EST) April 6, 2014. Again, we thank you for your support and we look forward to working collaboratively with you in the future. Read more here.
