2024 - 2025 Intent to Return (Re-Enrollment)

Re-Enrollment is the process by which The Main Street Academy (TMSA) indicates to current students and parents our desire to continue our relationship for the upcoming school year. For your child to continue their education with TMSA, each child must be "re-enrolled" through our online process. There are a limited number of seats available in each grade level, so we must confirm your child’s return during this Re-Enrollment period. If you do not confirm by the deadline, your child’s seat cannot be guaranteed. TMSA's annual re-enrollment process begins every January.

The Intent to Return/Re-Enrollment period for existing TMSA students begins at 12:00 a.m./midnight on Wednesday, January 3, 2024 and closes at 4:00 p.m. on Wednesday, January 24, 2024. There are no exceptions. Upon completing the Intent to Return Form via SchoolMint, TMSA parents/guardians must submit two proofs of residency reflecting their name and current residential address. It's imperative for TMSA parents/guardians to adhere to the re-enrollment window to ensure their students' seats for the 2024 - 2025 academic school year.

 2024 - 2025 Open Enrollment

The Open Enrollment period for prospective TMSA students is January 26, 2024 - February 15, 2024.

Prospective parents and guardians are required to create a SchoolMint account to complete the online application process. Please be sure to list the name and grade of the prospective student. Completing the online application and listing the student does not secure a seat.

To complete the enrollment process and secure your child's seat, prospective parents/guardians must submit the TMSA Enrollment Application and Policy Packet.
