Steps to Admission

Building shot with clouds1) Apply early. Many of our classes fill.  We welcome your classroom visit before you apply– call 208-323-3888.  We also encourage you to visit with our Headmaster if you have questions about the school.

2) Submit a completed application to our office with the application fee. This fee is generally non-refundable. We will refund half of the fee if we choose not to admit your child prior to September 1st.

3) For students above the 2nd grade, copies of standardized test scores and academic records (report cards or transcripts) are requested prior to student testing (step 4).

4) Our admissions office will schedule testing for the child. This typically takes 30 – 60 minutes for grammar school, and sometimes longer in the upper school. This is usually done after 2:00 PM when school is no longer in session.

5) Our admissions office will also schedule a family interview with the Headmaster. This can be scheduled at the same time as the child’s testing, but waiting for results may create a delay if the family is seeking immediate enrollment.

6) During the open enrollment period, families are held for admission until the final deadline. Within two weeks of the deadline, all families will be notified of their acceptance/ rejection.
