This year, we have a limited number of seats available, and enrolling early gives you a chance to skip the line, and secure a place for your scholar for the upcoming year.
The earlier you enroll, the earlier we can welcome you into the Breakthrough community! Plus, it’s one less thing to worry about come fall!

Why Enroll Early?
- With limited spaces available, enrolling early is the best way to get in.
- Families who enroll early are able to ensure that there is space for all of their children at the same school.
- The sooner you enroll, the more time you have to meet your teacher and learn what school is like.
- Your teacher and our Breakthrough staff are able to get to know your family, your scholar, and their individual needs. For example, if your child has an IEP, we’ll have more time to prepare so that everything is ready come the first day of school.
- Save time by increasing the chances that all of your children are able to attend the same campus, which means just one pick up and drop off location for your children.
- Set your scholar up for a seamless transition from elementary school to middle school, since they’ll already be familiar with the campus.
- Enjoy your summer, knowing that you beat the enrollment rush and your scholar is all set when fall comes around!
Who Should Enroll Early?
- Early enrollment is open to all scholars who will be attending any Breakthrough Public School for the first time. Whether you have a Kindergartnerer who is just embarking on their educational journey, or you recently moved to Cleveland and are looking for a school for your child, we would love the opportunity to welcome you!
Early Enrollment Requirements:
- Proof of current residency such as a utility bill, pay stub, or bank statement from the past 90 days.
