Newton County STEAM Academy

I wanted to send a quick update to help clear up a few misconceptions regarding the admissions waitlist process.

You should have received an email on June 9 with your child's waitlist number. This notification was sent earlier than the June 30 date originally listed on the Admissions Application so families would have their waitlist information as soon as possible.

 Beginning this week, July 6, we will start contacting the first round of accepted applicants by phone. We anticipate completing those calls by July 15.

If any accepted families decline their seats, we will immediately begin contacting the next applicant on the waitlist in numerical order. We will continue this process as seats become available until all available seats have been filled or until the September 8 enrollment deadline, whichever comes first.

 I hope this information helps clarify the admissions process. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact the school, and we will be happy to assist you.

 Thank you and enjoy the rest of your summer!
