The Cherokee Academies School Program 2015-2016 guidelines and applications are now available online at www.cherokee.k12.ga.us.

The Cherokee school district has English and Spanish versions of both documents that can be downloaded, printed, completed and returned to the front office of the academy being applied for. They can also be mailed to the district’s school operations office at 221. W. Main St., Canton, 30114.

The district operates four STEM and two fine arts academies at various elementary schools. The applications window for those schools is March 16 to April 10. Applications will be weighed on a first-come, first-served basis and approval will be granted where enrollment space is available, according to school officials.
