These results are reviewed by the Director of Admissions and School Administrator prior to acceptance.
Step IV – Interview
The Director of Admissions recommends the student and family to be interviewed by a School Administrator.

Following the interview, parents are notified in writing of the admission decision. Upon acceptance, parents must sign the Reservation and Enrollment Agreement and pay the non-refundable $500 Enrollment Fee through FACTS within five days in order to confirm and finalize the student’s enrollment.
Students are not enrolled and may not begin school until this has been received by the Administration Office.
