APPLICATION PROCESS FOR SIBLINGS OF CURRENT
STUDENTS
Siblings (brothers/sisters) of students currently
enrolled at Plymouth Educational Center (PEC) receive priority admission,
however, they must also submit an application for admission no later than
the designated due date.
APPLICATION PROCESS FOR NEW STUDENTS
The student enrollment period will begin as
designated on the most recent application forms. The most current applications
for enrollment may be obtained at PEC, 1460 East Forest, Detroit, Michigan,
48207. Applications also will be available at informational meetings.
APPLICATION PROCEDURE
A separate application must be submitted for
each child who is applying for admission. PEC cannot ensure the priority
of a sibling applicant unless the name(s) of sibling(s) either currently
enrolled or also applying for admission at PEC are clearly listed on the
application. PLEASE MAKE SURE THAT EACH SEPARATE APPLICATION LISTS ALL
OTHER SIBLING NAMES.
APPLYING ON-LINE
To apply on-line you must completely fill-out
the online application below for each student
who is applying for admission, and submit electronically all the required
documents (Birth Certificate, Social Security Card, Immunization Record,
and most Recent Report Card).
APPLICATION DEADLINE
All applications for admission must be received
by PEC at 1460 East Forest, Detroit, Michigan, 48207 by 5:00 p.m. on the
designated deadline date.
STUDENT SELECTION PROCESS
PEC will review all completed applications
upon receiving them. It is the parent's/guardian's responsibility to identify
siblings either currently enrolled or applying for admission. PEC assumes
no responsibility for identifying sibling preferences which are not clearly
noted on the application.
Copies of the following information must be submitted with each application:
- Birth Certificate
- Social Security Card
- Immunization Record
- Most Recent Report Card (children currently
enrolled in school)
- Proof of Michigan residency
- List of sibling(s) currently attending and/or
applying to PEC (if applicable)
SIBLING PRIORITY POLICY
Siblings of currently enrolled students are
given enrollment priority provided there is enough classroom space available
for the sibling(s) and if the application(s) clearly identifies siblings.
Sibling priority is given in the following manner: Siblings of students
enrolled in PEC the previous academic year will receive first priority
before the random lottery. If there are more siblings of currently enrolled
students than classroom spaces available in a given grade, PEC will hold
a random selection lottery for the classroom spaces from among the siblings
in that grade. The remaining siblings will be put on a waiting list for
that grade in the order of random selection.
Siblings of new students enrolled for the upcoming
academic year will receive second priority. As each new student is enrolled,
PEC will enroll the sibling(s) identified on the enrolled student's application
in the appropriate grade(s), provided that space is still available in
the sibling's grade. If the sibling's grade is full, the sibling will
be added to the waiting list for that grade.
PEC defines siblings as brothers and sisters living
full-time in the same household with a parent, grandparent, guardian or
foster parent.
LOTTERY
The random selection drawing shall be open
to the public and PEC will notify all applicants of the date, time, and
place of the drawing. PEC will draw names until all of the available classroom
spaces have been filled. The remaining names will be drawn thereafter
and assigned to a classroom waiting list for each grade level in the order
of selection.
WAITING LIST:
Applicants placed on the waiting list for the
2007-2008 school year must resubmit an application for the next school
year in order to be considered for admission. A new waiting list is created
for each school year.
While PEC would like to give priority to those applicants
who have had their name on the waiting list for the previous year, the
laws governing public school academies prohibit PEC from doing so.
PEC will not accept applications that do not have
the required accompanying information.
