Admission to Star Charter School will not be based on gender, national origin, ethnicity, religion, disability, academic or athletic ability, or the district the child would otherwise attend as long as the district of residency is served by Star Charter School. Submission of false or incomplete required information may be grounds for revocation of enrollment. Complete medical/health, disciplinary, and academic records must be received by Star Charter School before an application is considered complete. Enrollment is offered according to the following priority guideline: first, continuing students; second, siblings of continuing students; third, open enrollment. Should the need for a waiting list arise, students will be offered enrollment for available space according to priority level during the open enrollment, and by random lottery thereafter. In accordance with its charter document, Star Charter School will not be accepting students with a documented history of criminal offense, juvenile court adjudication, or discipline problems resulting in suspension, alternative education program placement or expulsion as described by TEC, Chapter 37, Subchapter A.
