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.
