ADMISSION POLICY

Students who understand and value the school’s mission and are committed to the school’s instructional and educational philosophy and conduct themselves in honorable way are encouraged to apply.

Admission to Kautantowit's Mecautea School shall be open to any member, child of a member, or under legal guardianship authority of a member of Kautantowit Mecautea Native American Church in Good Standing that is of legal age to attend public school (e.g., old enough to join Kindergarten).

Pupils will be considered for admission without regard to disability, gender, race, ethnicity, religion, religious creed (which includes religious dress and grooming practices), color, national origin, ancestry, medical condition, genetic information, or association with a person or group with one or more of the above actual or perceived characteristics.

The enrollment process for new students begins June 1st of each year. Application information is posted on the Kautantowit Mecautea School website. If the number of applications for admission to a grade exceeds the number of available slots in that grade, the spaces available for that grade will be filled by random lottery.

Note, previously enrolled students who matriculated through their grade level have priority, as do their siblings, and are not subject to the lottery. The lottery will be held in a public setting. Drawings will be held on a grade-by-grade basis to fill the available slots per grade.

All applicants to a grade will have their name randomly drawn. Those students who have their name drawn after the number of admission slots to that grade has been filled will be placed on an admissions waiting list for that grade in the order that they were drawn. Any spaces that open throughout the school year will be filled with students from the waiting list for the particular grade.

All students are required to attend summer school when first attending KM School.
