2024-2025 Registration
A $50 application fee must be paid at the time of registration. All registrations received between 8:00 AM and midnight on November 6 will be treated equally.
Notification of acceptance for new students will be emailed starting January 12, 2024. If your child is accepted, the non-refundable enrollment fee of $600 (which includes a $100 registration fee and $500 towards the April 1 tuition payment) and a signed tuition contract must be received by January 26, 2024 to confirm your child’s enrollment. If not accepted on January 12, your child will remain on the waitlist until a place is available.
School acceptance and waitlist priority will be in the following order:
- Siblings of currently enrolled students
- Siblings of previously enrolled students
- Active church members as of November 6
- Community
In each category, priority is given to applicants waitlisted in previous years.
Please note that you must create a Blackbaud ID to access the application. You will first be asked to enter the candidate’s info (first child you are applying), then parent information. If you already have a Blackbaud ID for another school, you will be able to log in with the same information. If applying for more than one child, when a parent logs in there will be a button on the right side that says Apply Another Child so all children are in the same account.
