Lincoln Charter School? (Lincolnton: middle school, kindergarten, campus)

[UNCMetsGal]

Anyone familiar with this school? How hard is it for an incoming kindergartener to get accepted (IE, how many applications are there usually, for how many seats?)?

Just gettin' a feel for this, and welcome any info/stories about this school.

Thanks!

I don't know anything about the elementary or middle school but my daughter goes to Lincoln Charter High School and she loves it and is doing great! I hope you hear from others. Good luck.

My son goes to the High School.
Kindergarten admission is by lottery. I'm not absolutely positive (since my son is a Senior) but there may be about 60 kindergarten seats at the Denver campus.

Oh, here it is...
As of the 11/26 Board meeting (http://lincolncharter.org/Administra...t_11-26-07.pdf) there were 61 enrolled in K at Denver with 41 on the waiting list. At the Lincolnton campus (http://lincolncharter.org/Administra...ort%20Linc.doc) there were 33 enrolled in K and just 2 on the waiting list.
I wish I could remember how many were in the lottery last year to help you out better.

I have friends who teach there and are parents there and it is very difficult to get in but an excellent school. Mark
