Enrollment
Mountain Oak is a Waldorf-Methods public, tuition-free charter school sponsored by the Arizona State Board for Charter Schools. Registration is administered by the Admissions Committee, consisting of the Administrator, the Office Manager, and class teachers. It is the purpose of this committee to be in charge of the registration and to review new student applications. To ensure that our specialized curriculum and program are suitable for each individual registrant, we follow a four-step process:
1. Parents/guardian and student interview with the MOS Administrator.
2. Parents/guardian and student interview with class teacher.
3. Parents/guardian and student interview with the Special Education Director, if necessary.
4. All required paperwork is completed.
A student is formally admitted only after these interviews have taken place, all required school(s) records have been received, and space has become available in the class. Limits for class size have been established for each grade. If that limit is reached, the student will be put on a waiting list. If a student is applying from out of town/state, a phone interview will take place. In accordance with Waldorf methods, prospective first graders must be six years old by August 31st of the school year. Children whose birthdays fall shortly thereafter are evaluated on an individual basis for readiness for our first grade curriculum.
Required Forms for Admission
Arizona State Law and MOS require the following forms to be completely filled out by the parent/guardian prior to admittance:
1. A MOS Enrollment Form with current daytime and emergency phone numbers.
2. A certified copy of the child’s birth certificate: Please bring the original and we will copy and certify it for our records.
3. A ‘Certificate of Immunization’ signed by a licensed physician certifying that the child has received age-appropriate immunizations as required by Law, or a ‘Request of Exemption from Immunization’ form signed by a parent or guardian. Please bring the original and we will copy and certify for our records.
4. A ‘Multi-Use Application for Free and Reduced-Price Meals.’
5. A ‘Home Language Survey.’
6. An ‘Emergency Medical Information’ card. Please notify the MOS office immediately upon change of address, daytime phone number, or emergency contact information.
7. A ‘Request for Release of Records’ from the child’s previous school.
8. Blank copies of all of these except the birth and immunization certificate are available in the school office.
