Incoming Students Application and Enrollment
[/gt3_custom_text][gt3_spacing height=”20px”][vc_separator color=”custom” align=”align_left” el_width=”100px” css=”” accent_color=”#6CACE4″][gt3_spacing height=”30px”][vc_column_text css=””]Greer Prep has enrolled 100 6th graders and 50 7th grades for the Fall of 2025. Students that are in the 6th and 7th grade for the 25-26 school year may be added to the waitlist for future enrollment opportunities.
Greer Prep will enroll 112 3rd graders, 112 4th graders, 132 5th graders, 132 6th graders for the 26-27 school year. We will have an additional 32 7th graders to the already established class and an additional 72 8th graders to the already established class. If there are more applicants than space available a lottery will take place to determine which students will be admitted to the incoming 3rd-6th grade classes.
Rising 3rd-6th graders (26-27 school year) should submit an application online between January 21 and February 11th to be entered in the lottery. Greer Prep uses PowerSchool Enrollment for applications for the Lottery. PowerSchool will run our lottery and all families will be notified via email from PowerSchool of the lottery results by February 14, 2026. From there, Enrollment paperwork will be sent and requested for completion from PowerSchool. Click here for a tutorial video on how to create an enrollment account and profile. The application is also available in Spanish here.
If you missed the initial lottery and would like to consider being placed on the waitlist, please create a profile on PowerSchool. After creating the profile, email [email protected] and we will open up the opportunity for you to complete the Lottery Application. You will then be placed on our waitlist.
