BCS Re-Enrollment Information

Thank you to all the families who participated in our Re-Enrollment Campaign for the 2026-27 school year! It was a huge success!

Enrollment Campaign by Numbers:

• 468 students were re-enrolled!
• 65% of our goal was met!
• $2,500 worth of prizes were given to our families!
• 7 generous sponsors supported our campaign!

Now what?

If you missed the deadline and plan to return to Brookside Charter next year, please still re-enroll your student now. We will not process any applications that are received after February 17th, 2026 until after we complete our state-mandated new student lottery. We will begin Open Enrollment on March 23rd. During this time we will process returning student applications, in the order they were received and where grade level capacity allows, and new student applications.

If you need re-enrollment support, email enrollment@brooksidecharter.org or call our Registrar, Mrs. Keisha Cannon-Cage at 816-531-2192 x1815

If you do not plan to re-enroll your student at Brookside Charter School for the 2026-27 School year, please email enrollment@brooksidecharter.org so that we can make that note.
