ADMISSIONS PROCEDURES
Grace Classical Christian Academy uses an admissions procedure that resembles the application process used in many other private schools and colleges. This procedure allows the school to accurately identify and admit students from families who have clearly expressed convictions that are similar to the school’s regarding the education of children.
The selection and make-up of the school’s student body is second only to staff selection in the impact it has upon the school’s mission. The family-like atmosphere Grace Classical Christian Academy seeks to foster and currently enjoys is due in great measure to the similarity of biblical convictions and principles taught and lived out in many of the homes of our students. As the Lord blesses us with growth and change, we want to do all we can to maintain and build up that culture.
The basic process for new applicants is as follows:
1. January 1 through August 1 of each year: New applications and school handbooks will be dispersed and completed applications will be collected. Date of application will be recorded, but will not necessarily be a consideration in acceptance.
2. Upon returning your application: Interviews will be scheduled, grade assessment tests given, and requisite documentation related to each new student will be collected.
3. After Interview/Assessments Completed: Notification of acceptance or denial will be mailed to each applicant. Accepted applicants will receive all appropriate information for preparing for school, including financial arrangements.
A student’s academic achievements will be considered in the application process, but only for grade placement, not as the primary determinant for acceptance. Each new student will be given an entrance test to determine final grade placement. Again, we are seeking to enroll those students who, because of their own family’s educational, behavioral, and spiritual priorities, will most benefit from what GCCA can offer them.
