Academy Enrollment

Enrollment takes place only after the student’s family has accorded themselves to be in agreement with the Statement of Faith as well as the academic practices of the school, and is then authorized to enroll. The process of qualification to enroll is explained below. The enrollment method is designed to provide a modest advantage to returning families who are allowed to enroll on a first-come, first-served basis during the initial days of Early Registration. Immediately following the returning family registration, new families are allowed to begin registering also on a first-come, first-served basis.

• 1For prospective new students in kindergarten through 7th grade, parents can obtain the necessary enrollment/admissions information from the administration office. They must meet academic criteria based on entrance testing. Children entering kindergarten must be five years of age on or before September 30. After satisfying all requirements, many families may wish to register.
• 2Each new student in grades kindergarten through sixth grade must meet behavioral and academic criteria based on prior school records. After successful completion of admission screening, the principal will give approval or denial for the enrollment process to continue.
