Admissions



GCCS hosts several information sessions for prospective families each year.  For enrollment during the 2012-2013 school year, we are holding parent information sessions on the following dates:

• Wednesday, March 21, 2012 at 7:00 p.m.
• Thursday, March 29, 2012 at 7:00 p.m.
• Saturday, March 31, 2012 at 9:00 a.m. OR 1:00 p.m.

Sessions last approximately 90 minutes.  The information sessions will be held on the RMSC campus, in the Bausch Auditorium in the main Museum building. Registration is not necessary for the parent information sessions.

Applications for admission are due at the conclusion of the parent information session on Saturday, March 31.

Our lottery for admission will be held on Monday, April 2, 2012 at 9:00 a.m. in the Gannett School Computer Lab, which is located in the GCCS school building on the second floor. Parents of applicants are welcome to attend the lottery.

During the lottery, residents of the City School District are drawn first and suburban residents are drawn next. If the number of applicants exceeds the number of spaces available, children are placed on a waiting list in the order in which their names are drawn. Siblings are given preference, and are enrolled as space allows.

We have scheduled a student-led tour of the school so that prospective parents may see us in action. The date of the tour is:

• Thursday, April 5, 2012, 8:30 a.m.

Please call Maureen Milke at 271-4552 ext. 460 to register for a tour.

Families will be notified of their enrollment status within seven days of the lottery. Enrollment acceptance is due in the School's main office by Friday, April 20, 2012 at 2:00 p.m.

Using our waiting list, we fill openings throughout the spring and summer and during the school year.
