At Genesis We want our students back! 

Genesis is still engaged in legal proceedings with the full intention of prevailing and continuing to serve your children’s educational needs for the 2023-24 school year.  Back in February, we notified you of deadlines and informed you of the ways that you could apply to other schools if we were not successful and a copy of that letter is on our website.  In the meantime, I have listened to many of you express your frustration with our potential closing and your desire to choose Genesis as your school of choice for next year. 

In order for us to properly plan for the 2023-24 school year and guarantee your student’s seat should we be successful in court; we are now accepting 2023-24 intent to reenroll forms.  Simply click here.  Completing the reenrollment form will not impact your ability to accept offers from other schools, change your mind in the future, etc. but simply guarantees a seat at Genesis if and when we prevail.  We currently expect a final decision by June 20^th.

Please know that we want your child to return for the 2023-24 school year!  Should you have questions about how to proceed, please don’t hesitate to contact the school.  Should you have concerns about your child’s progress or our ability to meet their needs, please don’t hesitate to call myself or Mr. Wright.

The longer students stay with us, the better we are able to meet their needs.  We believe we have more programs and support for students than any other elementary school in Kansas City. 

Re-enrollment at Genesis is summed up by Three Words:

• STAY  Changing schools causes lost learning time.  Students who stay in the same school outperform those that transfer.
• LEARN Genesis has advanced capacity to target individual student data and help students learn.  Data shows that student learning improves over time.
• GROW We have multiple programs to meet the Social-Emotional and aspirational goals of students. We want them to grow with us.

Frequently Asked Questions regarding Reenrollment:

1. I already applied and accepted an offer at another school.  Is it too late to change and if I reenroll now will I lose my seat at the school I accepted. 

We would not recommend that you give up a seat at a school your child has been accepted at while we are awaiting a decision.  You can complete the reenrollment form now and make your decision later. 

2. Do I have to do it on-line? 

No.  You can stop by the front desk or we can send a one-page form home with your child. If you have an e-mail address, reenrolling on-line will give you access to our parent portal so you can see other information about your child.

3. When do I have to reenroll by? 

You should reenroll now to guarantee your child’s seat for next year.  Should we be successful in court, we will begin making offers to new students after we know who is reteruning.  If you do not reenroll my June 20th^h, you may be placed on a waiting list or lose your seat.

4. After I complete this, am I done? 

Not completely.  We will have parents complete registration, including transportation and providing proof of residency prior to August.

5. I don’t plan on being in Kansas City next year, should I still reenroll? 

Unless you are sure you will not return, then Yes you should reenroll now and guarantee your seat.  If later you move or know you will not be coming back, please contact the office so we can offer your seat to someone else.
