Enrollment process:
- Sturgis Charter Public School provides an enrollment period for Grade 9 & 10 applicants. We are not able to accept students for the 11th or 12th grade.
- A complete Enrollment Registration/Application Form must be submitted by the end of the enrollment period. The form can be downloaded and, either mailed or hand delivered to Sturgis. No applications can be accepted before the enrollment period begins. No additional information (teacher recommendations, test scores, etc) is necessary.
- OPTIONAL- Student and parent/guardian are encouraged to attend one Information Session or, if that is not possible, a private meeting with the Executive Director may be arranged. You do not need to pre-register to attend an Information Session.
- OPTIONAL- Prospective students may spend a morning shadowing at Sturgis. To arrange a shadow appointment, the parent/guardian should call the main office, 508-778-1782 from 8:30-3:00, Monday through Friday. Students generally stay for three class periods. They are asked to arrive at 8:10 and will be done at 11:45. Students must report to the main office and bring a note from home that gives them permission to be at Sturgis, with a phone number where a parent/guardian can be reached if necessary. We will begin to schedule shadow appointments in November, 2011. Shadow Appointments will take place at Sturgis East Campus unless otherwise requested.
