Enrollment Priority
In enrolling students, RMCA values keeping families together
and honoring the commitments of currently enrolled families.
Enrollment priorities are set accordingly.
If, within a given group, there are more students than
spaces in the class, a lottery is conducted to randomly choose those
who are granted a place in the class. If you have questions about this
priority structure, please contact Barb Bulthuis or Dorothy Brunson.
