Welcome prospective parents and students!

REALMS is open to all students in the Bend LaPine School District. We are a tuition free, public charter school, with class sizes of approximately 23 students per class. We have 2 classes at each grade level for a total of approximately 140 students.

We are accepting applications for our current 6th, 7th, and 8th grade WAIT LISTS. There wait lists are not exceptionally long so we DO encourage you to get your name on the list if you are interested. Wait lists are for our CURRENT classes only, NOT for the 6th grade class of 2012-13!

We accept applications throughout the year, however enrollment for the next school year's 6th grade class is based on a lottery in late March.  Applications for the 2012-13 school year lottery are due in the REALMS office at 3:00pm Friday, March 23rd.

We strongly encourage all families (parent and student) to attend one of our Information Nights as a part of applying to REALMS. Between now and then, please feel free to explore this web site as a way to familiarize yourself with our approach to teaching and learning!

For those interested in getting a "real time" feel for what learning is like in REALMS classrooms, a school visit can be scheduled in March AFTER attending one of our Information Nights!
