Military-Connected Student and Family Support

At Priority Charter Schools, we are honored to serve military-connected students and their families, and we understand the unique challenges that come with a military lifestyle. We are committed to providing support and guidance to ensure that our military-connected families have access to the resources they need to succeed.

Priority Charter Schools is currently enrolling and you may contact the specific school or District office for availability. If you have an order to transfer to our area and want to enroll your child, please complete the Application for Enrollment.

Special Considerations:

  • Proof of residence: is not required at this time but must be provided by the first day of school.  If you are in transition and do not have a permanent address yet, please contact the us so that we can work with you.
  • Educational records: will be requested from previous schools at the end of the current school year or upon enrollment during the school year. Priority Charter Schools adheres to the Interstate Compact on Educational Opportunity for Military Children (Military Compact) so that information contained in unofficial or “hand-carried” educational records furnished by the sending state will be honored pending validation of the official records.
  • Immunizations: Students with incomplete immunization records will be given thirty (30) days from the date of enrollment to obtain any incomplete immunizations.
  • Kindergarten and First Grade Entrance Age: Students are allowed to continue their enrollment at grade level from a local education agency at the time of transition, regardless of age. Students who have satisfactorily completed the prerequisite grade level in the local education agency from the previous state are eligible for enrollment at the next grade level, regardless of age.  A student transferring during the school year will be enrolled at their current grade level from an accredited school.

For more information SEE ENROLLMENT PROCESS.

Our campus-based School Liaison is here to help you during your transition or while you are enrolled at Priority Charter Schools. We can help provide you with resources and services available to support all military-connected students.
