The first bell has rung, backpacks are packed, and classrooms are buzzing. If your family missed the start of the year, take a breath, because there is still time to enroll at EDUPRIZE. As a tuition-free public charter school with six consecutive A+ Excelling ratings, we welcome new families throughout the year.
Maybe your current school is not the right fit, or maybe a move changed your plans. Whatever the reason, it is not too late to give your child an award-winning education. Below, we explain how open enrollment works and why so many families are still choosing EDUPRIZE for 2026-27.
Yes, There Is Still Time to Enroll
Many parents assume the window closes once school begins. Fortunately, that is not the case. Because we are a public charter school, we accept new students as seats remain available, not only in the spring.
Right now, families can still join us across all three programs:
- EDUPRIZE Gilbert, serving K-8
- EDUPRIZE Queen Creek, serving K-8
- EDUPRIZE Online, serving K-12 statewide
If a grade is full, we will gladly add your child to our list and reach out the moment a seat opens. Either way, you will always know exactly where you stand.
Enrollment stays open because families need flexibility. Jobs change, families relocate, and sometimes a school that felt right in the spring is not the right fit by fall. Whenever that moment arrives for your family, we are ready to help.
Still Time to Enroll, Even After School Starts
Starting a few weeks in can feel intimidating, yet children adjust faster than most parents expect. Because our classes are small and our teachers are warm, new students are welcomed by name and paired with buddies who help them settle in.
In fact, many of our happiest families joined mid-year. Once they saw the difference, their only regret was not making the move sooner.
Why Families Are Still Choosing EDUPRIZE
Switching schools can feel daunting, yet families tell us the change was worth it. Again and again, they point to the same handful of reasons.
Award-Winning Academics
First, results speak for themselves. EDUPRIZE holds the longest A+ Excelling streak of any charter school in Arizona, backed by strong academics and caring, certified teachers.
A Community That Feels Like Family
Second, families notice the warmth. With small class sizes and teachers who know every student by name, new students settle in quickly and feel at home fast.
Enrolling Is Quick and Simple
Getting started is easier than most parents expect. Our enrollment team walks you through every step, and most families finish their application in just a few minutes. Best of all, EDUPRIZE is tuition-free, with no income requirements and no hidden fees.
If you have questions, we are happy to help you find the right fit for your child. Reach out today, and we will make the transition smooth and stress-free from the very first call.
The Best Time to Switch Is Now
Timing is the question we hear most, so let us be clear. You do not need to wait for a new semester, a report card, or any special date. The best time to move a child to a school that fits is the moment you realize they deserve it.
To make the switch easy, our team coordinates records, schedules a friendly welcome, and answers every question along the way. From your first phone call to your child’s first day, you will never feel like you are figuring it out alone.
