After a review of the completed application materials, Elementary and Secondary applicants may be scheduled for an assessment test. This test will help gain insight into the student's academic strengths and weaknesses. Once the test has been completed, a campus appointment will take place to establish the compatibility of the academic, social, and spiritual goals of the family and school. Acceptance or non-acceptance will be communicated to you as soon as possible.
