'Meet TMES' is a once a year event. It is held in February every year. It is also the first day applications are available for the upcoming school year (2012-2013). We highly suggest that you attend this event if you are interested in having your child attend TMES. It is the only time of the year our school is open for public tours and is a great time to see our students play violin, and get your questions answered by our incredible staff. Please read the FAQ's document before attending so you are aware of the most frequently asked questions about TMES.

*We currently do not have any other tours scheduled.* Please see the pictures of TMES classrooms and students at work to give you an idea of what the school looks like if you are not able to attend Meet TMES Day on February 25th, 2012. (Did we mention that our school is open for tours only once a year?! Don't miss Meet TMES Day!) We will give tours on an as-needed basis to applicants and their families that have been given a position through the lottery process. Thank you for respecting and understanding our policy to give all of our current students the best learning environment possible.

TMES Policy for Admission

  • Continuing TMES students are automatically admitted upon their completion of an Intent to Return Admissions Form.
  • Siblings of current TMES/TMMS students are admitted if appropriate space is available.
  • Applications will be available at the school for pick up and drop off and will also be available on our website.
  • Spaces available will be determined by subtracting the number of continuing students from the number of available spaces for each grade level.
  • If the number of applicants is less than or equal to available spaces for each grade, these students will be notified that they have been admitted to TMES for the coming year.
  • If the number of applicants exceeds available spaces for a given grade, a lottery process will be used to fill available spaces for that grade.

 

The Lottery Process

  • Lotteries shall be held at a Collaborative Council meeting.
  • Students will be identified by number only during the lottery process.
  • After each applicant’s identification number is drawn, the number shall be announced and recorded in the order drawn until all available spaces are filled. Only the number of available spaces will be drawn in the lottery. For example, if there are four available spaces in a grade level, then only four applicant numbers will be drawn in the lottery or mini-lottery.
  • Space available will be filled by students in the order in which they were drawn.
  • After all available spaces have been filled, the remaining applicants will go back into the grade level pool of applicants. If an opening becomes available after the initial lottery in, a mini-lottery will be held with that grade levels applicant pool.
  • Any student expelled or suspended from any other school, including another Charter School, shall be considered to be expelled or suspended from TMES and will not be eligible for admission to TMES.
  • Any omission or falsification of pertinent information on the TMES application can be considered cause for rescinding of position on enrollment list and loss of drawn placement.
