Admissions
|
Student Admissions Enrollment is open to any high school student living within the Hemet Unified School District until capacity if reached. Initial capacity is estimated at 125 students. Staff will promote consistent attendance by establishing positive relationships with parents and students, making home visits, offering attendance incentives and supporting students to ensure success. Students applying for the HAAAT School will take a career assessment (e.g. Career Ability Placement Survey or Career Orientation Placement and Evaluation Survey), and complete a Eureka career interest session via computer. Students will also take the Test of Adult Basic Education to establish reading, language arts and math levels. Students must write an essay explaining why they want to attend HAAAT. School staff will use these assessments to develop an Individualized Learning Plan (ILP) for the student. Lottery Selection Process Each year HAAAT will advertise a specific registration period. During that time, interested students and parents must return the necessary paperwork, complete an interview and attend an orientation. After the registration period ends, a public random lottery will be held to determine which qualified students will attend HAAAT. Everyone meeting the enrollment deadline and criteria will be placed into the lottery pool. Two lottery sections will be held the same night - one for ninth grade and one for tenth grad. One new grade will be added in the 2008-09 and 2009-10. The first 125 names chosen will be eligible for HAAAT enrollment. The remaining names will be drawn to determine the waiting list order. Siblings of students chosen to attend will be moved to the top of the waiting list. |
