We are once again partnering with Lotterease to offer an online application/enrollment process. The link to submit an application is on the Enrollment Page of our website (https://www.roxborocs.org/page/enrollment). We will be accepting applications for the 2026-2027 until March 3, 2026. If we have more applications than openings, we will hold an online lottery on March 5, 2026. Please help us spread the word to friends, family, and neighbors with children who will be in 6th-12th grade next year.
A few important reminders
* Students who are currently attending Roxboro Community School DO NOT need to re-apply to attend next school year.
* Siblings of current students or alumni DO need to complete an application to attend RCS next year.
They are given preference in the lottery because they are the sibling** of a current student or alumni. But they DO have to apply by the March 3, 2026 deadline or the Lotterease computer system will automatically place them on a waiting list. [**"Sibling" includes brothers or sisters, half-siblings, step-siblings, or foster siblings living in the same household.]
* Paper copies of the 2026-2027 application are available for anyone who does not have internet or computer access.
Please visit the Enrollment page on our website (https://www.roxborocs.org/page/enrollment) for more information, or contact RCS Registrar, Jodi DeVillier, at 336.597.0020, ext 322 or devillierjh@roxborocs.org if you have questions or concerns.

Karrie Obie was presented with a scholarship from the Lewis "Eddie" Winstead Memorial Fund yesterday afternoon. The scholarship is given in memory of Eddie Winstead. Each year, the scholarship committee chooses to award the scholarship to students who excel academically and athletically and would have benefited from Eddie's training, guidance, teaching, and mentorship.
Obie is a strong student and an incredible multisport athlete, playing basketball and softball. She will be attending UNC-Greensboro in the fall to play softball. We have been so lucky to have her talents at RCS for many years and are so proud of her and all of her accomplishments! Thank you to the Winstead family for coming in each year to present this scholarship!
