General Admissions Information
Thank you for your interest in Harding Independence Charter District. Admission to the district’s schools is on a first-come, first-served basis -- subject to the priority rankings listed below and the number of seats available. If the number of applications exceeds the number of seats available, the district is required to select students through a lottery.
Regardless of priority rankings, all applications for admission must be submitted by the deadline to be considered. The priority rankings are as follows:
-
Applicants with siblings currently enrolled in ICMS or HCP and/or current ICMS students applying to HCP
-
Applicants residing within the Oklahoma City Public School District (a student with an approved transfer shall be considered a student of the district)
-
Applicants residing outside of the Oklahoma City Public School District
Applications will be accepted beginning Oct. 1 of the year prior to admission through the first Friday of the following March at 4:30 p.m. Any application received after 4:30 p.m. shall be considered late and put on a second waitlist. The first waitlist will be comprised of students whose numbers were not pulled during the HCPHS lottery.
Any lottery required to be held will be conducted as follows:
-
Applicants with siblings currently enrolled in ICMS or HCP and/or current ICMS students applying to HCP will be placed in one container and drawn first.
-
Applicants residing within the Oklahoma City Public School District will be placed in a separate container and drawn second (a student with an approved transfer shall be considered a student of the district);
-
Applicants residing outside of the Oklahoma City Public School District will be placed in a third container and drawn third.
Once a student has been enrolled in the district, that student will automatically be enrolled for each succeeding school year, provided all application and enrollment requirements are met.
