Enrollment for Rhode Island Charter Schools Closes Next Week

PROVIDENCE, RI — The Rhode Island League of Charter Schools (RILCS) reminds families that the application period for charter public schools closes on Thursday, March 16, 2023 at 5:00 p.m. Parents wishing to enter their child or children into the lottery for the 2023-24 school year can complete an application at enrollri.org.

“Rhode Island charter schools are proud to offer free, public-school options for all Rhode Island families seeking public school alternatives for their children,” said Keith A. Oliveira, executive director of the Rhode Island League of Charter Schools. “We know one-size public education does not fit all students. More and more Rhode Island families are seeking the innovative, student-centered learning environments that our charter schools provide.”

Charter schools are public schools, free and open to all Rhode Island students. Charters schools are located throughout Rhode Island and provide elementary, middle, and high school options.

Rhode Island families can learn more about public charter school options by exploring the family information tool and applying at enrollri.org/charter. Rhode Island offers a common application to make it easier for families to select and apply to more than one school at once. Information is available in English, Spanish and Portuguese.

Parents will be notified of the results of the charter school lottery on April 18th through their EnrollRI account.
