How can I secure a spot at Philip’s Academy Charter School? Although we cannot guarantee admission to PACS, the higher you rank Philip’s Academy Charter School among your top eight choices, the greater the chances are for your child to attend our school.
How are students matched to schools?
After the application closes, automated computer software will match each student with the best possible school based on the student’s choices and the policies of the enrollment system. Students will then receive a single offer to attend the best possible school given their selections. This computer software is used in several other districts with centralized enrollment systems and has been customized for Newark’s needs. Students will learn of their matches prior to the end of the current school year.
