Admissions Lottery for SY20-21

This year, due to the current circumstances around COVID-19, we are holding the lottery remotely. We are using the same lottery software as in previous years, but now the entire lottery proceeding is taking place online and is being recorded. An audio transcript will be produced after the event, which is in accordance with the new SUNY charter school lottery guidelines.

Current students have priority to return in school year 2020-21 and we will run the lottery by grade starting with Kindergarten and ending with 10th grade to fill open seats.

We have sorted through the applications beforehand and assigned priorities to certain groups based on our charter. The lottery priorities are as follows:

Offspring of current Hyde Employees
Siblings of students currently enrolled
Applicants residing in CSD 8
Applicants outside of CSD 8
