Update from Apply Philly Charter
Although next Tuesday, March 24, 2020 is the earliest that participating schools can expire seat offers to students selected from the initial lottery, Apply Philly Charter (APC) is recommending that, schools consider extending this deadline date and/or loosening requirements for securing a seat (for example, allowing families to submit enrollment packets via email).
If required by policy or bylaw, schools should work with their Board of Trustees to get guidance on adjusting their deadline dates. If a decision is made for accommodations, APC has requested that schools provide all changes via

, including providing a phone number or email address for families to contact if they have questions (if applicable). This will allow APC’s staff and Helpline to be equipped to answer questions from families in an efficient way.
