Delhi Charter School is pleased to announce that a limited number of student vacancies exist for the 2026-2027 school year.  This creates an opportunity for more students in our area to take advantage of this excellent choice in public education.

The application window will be open from April 1, 2026 through April 30, 2026.  

Any student that does not currently attend DCS and wishes to be considered must submit a new application each year.  This includes legacies (brothers/sisters of current DCS students that live in the same household) as all previous applications have been purged.  Students entering Kindergarten must turn 5 years old on or before September 30, 2026 to be considered for enrollment.

It is preferable that applications are submitted online.  If this is not possible, applications may be picked up from the school, either in the front office or in the clear document box outside the double doors of the main office.  Paper applications may be returned in person (either in the front office or in the locked dropbox beside the main office double doors), scanned and emailed to Brett.Raley@delhicharterschool.org, or by mailed directly to Brett Raley, Headmaster Delhi Charter School   6940 Hwy 17 Delhi, LA 71232.

All applications must be received by midnight on April 30, 2026.  Please submit only 1 application per child.  Multiple applications for the same child will be deleted.  You may call the school at 318-878-0433, ext 1105 for additional information.  Please leave a message if no one is available.

There will be a Lottery Drawing held on May 5, 2026 @ 4:00 PM to determine the order by which students will be placed on the waiting list. The meeting will be streamed live on the school’s Facebook page. The lottery will be conducted in two phases:

●     Applicants residing in Richland Parish.

●     Applicants residing outside Richland Parish.

BESE approved a change to the Admission Policy that gives priority to students living in Richland Parish.  Student acceptance will be determined in the following order:

1. Children of DCS faculty and staff.

2. Sibling applicants (legacy), provided they live in the same household, regardless of parish

3. Applicants from Richland on the waiting list, in the order drawn,

4. Applicants from outside of Richland Parish on the waiting list, in the order drawn.

All Open Enrollment applicants must be considered before any post-lottery applicants, including legacies.

Letters will be sent to students that have been accepted after the current school year has ended.  Those not accepted will not receive a letter but will remain on the waiting list.  Please continually update contact information, including address and phone number, to ensure that we can contact you should the need arise.
