Schools of Choice

We will be accepting LIMITED applications for students in grades K through 11th who live in Wayne County for in-person learning.  Unlimited applications for Riverview Virtual Academy will be accepted in grades K-12 for 100% online learning.

Applications must be submitted between April 15 and May 14. 

1. Online application for each individual student must be received during the application window.
2. Click here to complete the online application (will not be available until 7:00 am on Monday, 4/15).
3. We will contact your student's previous school, if applicable, for prior discipline records.
4. You will be notified of acceptance, denial, or waitlist status no later than Friday, 5/24/24

• When will I know if my student is accepted?
  • Notification of acceptance, denial, or waitlisted will be sent via email no later than 5/24/24.
• I already have a student enrolled in Riverview.  Will my other students automatically be accepted?
  • No.  We can give preference to siblings of current Riverview students.  There must be availability in the grade for the sibling and there must be no suspensions or expulsions.
• Do I need to apply again if I already have a student enrolled?
  • No.  Current Schools of Choices students do not need to re-apply.  Once a student is enrolled, they are considered to be a Riverview student until graduation or there is a break in enrollment.
• How are Schools of Choice students selected?
  • If the number of qualified applicants exceeds the number of open seats per grade level, a random lottery will be utilized to select the students.  Remaining applicants will be placed on a waitlist.  Schools of Choice selection is not first-come-first-serve.
• My student was put on the waitlist.  What does that mean?
  • If a spot becomes available before the end of the first week of the school year, you will be offered that spot.
• Will there be transportation for my student?
  • No.  Parents/guardians are expected to provide transportation.  It is also expected that students will be dropped off and picked up on time.

After you receive your acceptance email,

• Complete the online pre-enrollment form before 5/29/24.
• After the District approves the pre-enrollment, you will receive an email with instructions to create a PowerSchool Parent Account.  This email is usually delivered to your junk folder.  Search for a message from powerschool@riverviewschools.com.
• Once you receive the information to create your PowerSchool account, you will have until 6/5/24 to complete the enrollment forms.
• If the forms are not complete by 6/5/23, your student's spot will be offered to the next student on our waitlist.
