ADMISSION POLICY

Students are accepted into Grace Christian Academy based upon the student's previous academic, spiritual, and social records, as well as interviews with the student and parents. New students (first grade and older) may be required to take an entrance test at the discretion of the school administration to determine grade level achievement.

Students are not denied admission to Grace Christian Academy because of below grade-level achievement scores; however, if it is determined that a student requires additional specialized assistance, the parents will be referred to an appropriate service, or the student will be placed in the proper grade level.

REGISTRATION DATES

Registration for current GCA families begins each year on the first school day in February. Registration for all new families begins each year on the first school day in March. Students are accepted for fall enrollment throughout the summer months provided there is space available. A $300 registration fee is due upon registration and is required for all students each year. The registration fee is non-refundable.

Before a student can be admitted into the school, all necessary forms must be completely filled out, signed and returned to the school office.

	Complete "Application for Enrollment" form
	Return your completed application with the $300 registration fee. (Once class placement is guaranteed, the registration fee is non-refundable.)
	Read and sign "Family Commitment" Form. Return to office with application.
	Submit a copy of immunization and birth certificate. (All students entering first grade must have a physical examination. Please pick up the "Health Check-Up" form at the school office.)
	Bring a copy of the last year’s achievement test results for students in first grade and above. Students who do not have one may be required to take an entrance test before final acceptance.
