FernLeaf 常见问题解答
No, all applications received in the open application period are entered into the lottery, which determines both the order that students that are offered enrollment and the order of the initial waitlist. Applications received after the open application period are placed at the bottom of the waitlist in the order they are received.
FernLeaf's open application period is between January 1st - March 15th for the following school year and any applications we receive during that time frame are placed into the lottery.
It does not matter if you applied first or you applied last within this time frame as all valid applications are randomized and selected blindly.
Essentially we take all the names, place them in a hat, and draw them out one by one to create the order of both enrollment as well as the waitlist for each grade level. We of course do not use this "hat" method, but utilize a computer program that essentially performs the same function.
FernLeaf's lottery is held within 2 weeks of the Open Application period closing. Families are emailed their student's specific lottery results immediately following the lottery.
We are a cellphone free campus. We ask all K-8th grade students to keep their cell phones at home during the school day. If a student needs to be reached during the school day we ask parents to call the office and teachers will convey the message. Students are always able to call home using phones in the classrooms.
FernLeaf High School students are permitted to bring cellphones to school (for use after school and when off campus) but are not permitted to use them at any time while on campus or while engaged in school sponsored activities.
