ADMISSIONS INFORMATION

 

APPLY

After prayerfully considering your family’s needs for education, the first step in our admissions process is to complete an Application for Admissions. This form is sent via email to interested families and is also available on our website. The non-refundable application fee will be due upon submission of your student’s application. 

ASSESSMENT

Student assessments are scheduled to ensure proper grade placement and to gain a clear understanding of each child’s academic readiness, learning style, and individual strengths.  This helps us partner well with families and best support each student’s success in the classroom.  

FAMILY MEETING

Following the submission of an application, you will be invited to schedule a family meeting.  The family meeting provides us with an opportunity to meet your family and to get to know one another better while discussing the compatibility of your family’s educational goals with SCS’s methods and philosophy.

SHADOW DAY 

A shadow day may be scheduled upon request, allowing the student to experience a typical school day at SCS.

RECORDS/REFERRALS

All necessary records and referrals (including immunization records or an Exemption Affidavit) will need to be obtained to move into the next phase of the admissions process. *If an Exemption Affidavit is being used, the original will need to be submitted to SCS prior to the first day of school. 

ADMISSIONS DECISION

After the family meeting and all records/referrals have been obtained, SCS will review your admissions application and communicate an admissions decision to you via email.

ENROLLMENT

An enrollment form will be sent to you (pending the admissions decision) and the supply fee will be due upon submission. Each family will have a week from the date of the enrollment invitation to submit their enrollment packet.  Enrollment communicates your decision to accept our admissions offer and officially reserves a seat for the upcoming school year.
