Sojourner School Lottery Process

2025-2026 Registration and Lottery will open on Friday, January 31, 2025.

The Sojourner School is a lottery based admission. This school lottery system is a random selection process for determining which students will attend. The lottery system aims to give all applicants an equal chance of being admitted. A school lottery system only occurs when more students apply for admission than can be admitted. 

It is important that you have registered at your neighborhood school because we will be accessing your student's information from there. If you have not registered at your neighborhood school, your lottery application will be invalid. Please verify all information is correct and accurate. 

The lottery application will close on Friday, April 18th. Lottery results will be shared on Friday, April 25th via email.

What happens if my student is not selected by the lottery?

If all of the enrollment slots have become filled after the lottery, the students who were not selected will be added to a wait list. The lottery method will continue to determine in what order students will be put on the waitlist. 

The waitlist should be continuously updated as students are admitted. This will allow the position of any student to be known and allow parents to stay updated on the status of their children’s admission. 

Please follow the steps below to ensure that you student is enrolled in the lottery process:
