Notice to RANDOLPH RESIDENTS:

Charter school regulations state that "the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education shall notify each Commonwealth charter school no later than February 15 of any limitation on the number of students from a district that may be enrolled in charter schools for the upcoming year." 603 CMR 1.05(6)(d). 

More detail and information can be found on the DESE website here.

South Shore Charter Public School has been notified that there will be a limit on the number of applicants from Randolph for the 2023-2024 school year as a result of the net school spending (NSS) cap. Randolph resident applicants will be included in the lottery and placed on the waitlist but are ineligible for enrollment in the 2023-24 school year unless they are a sibling of a current South Shore Charter Public School student. If the Randolph Public School District is no longer at its NSS cap and a vacancy occurs during the school year, a Randolph resident applicant from the waitlist might become eligible for enrollment. We await further information from the Massachusetts Department of Education regarding this issue.
