Hemet Academy of Applied Academics and Technology - Lottery Selection Process

Lottery Selection Process

Each year HAAAT advertises a specific registration period. During that time, interested students and parents must return the necessary paperwork, complete an interview and attend an orientation. After the registration period ends, a public random lottery is held to determine which qualified students will attend HAAAT. Everyone meeting the enrollment deadline and criteria is placed into the lottery pool. Two lottery sections are to be held the same night - one for ninth grade and one for tenth grade. One new grade will be added in the 2008-09 and 2009-10.

The first 125 names chosen are eligible for HAAAT enrollment. The remaining names are drawn to determine the waiting list order. Siblings of students chosen to attend are moved to the top of the waiting list.

Famous quotes containing the words lottery, selection and/or process:

    The recent attempt to secure a charter from the State of North Dakota for a lottery company, the pending effort to obtain from the State of Louisiana a renewal of the charter of the Louisiana State Lottery, and the establishment of one or more lottery companies at Mexican towns near our border, have served the good purpose of calling public attention to an evil of vast proportions.
    Benjamin Harrison (1833–1901)

    It is the highest and most legitimate pride of an Englishman to have the letters M.P. written after his name. No selection from the alphabet, no doctorship, no fellowship, be it of ever so learned or royal a society, no knightship,—not though it be of the Garter,—confers so fair an honour.
    Anthony Trollope (1815–1882)

    The a priori method is distinguished for its comfortable conclusions. It is the nature of the process to adopt whatever belief we are inclined to, and there are certain flatteries to the vanity of man which we all believe by nature, until we are awakened from our pleasing dream by rough facts.
    Charles Sanders Peirce (1839–1914)
