ADMISSIONS & DEADLINES
Thank you for your interest in St. Thomas School. In the Admissions Office, our goal is to provide information that will assist you as you research and decide on the right school for your child's education.
The admission process includes specific steps and requires the submission of key documents that are used collectively to determine admission. We review school records, test scores, teacher recommendations, and assessment visitations. A portfolio is created for each prospective student, and every effort is made to obtain all pertinent information to support the applicant’s candidacy.
The application deadline for the first round of admissions has passed; however, we continue to accept applications for grade levels where space is available. Currently we will accept applications for the 2-Day Preschool class and Grades 1-6. You may download application materials from the website or contact the school to request a packet. The following checklist outlines our admissions process and requirements.
Checklist
- Visit the school for a tour or an Open House (optional).
- Submit completed application and application fee.
- Submit the Financial Aid application (if applicable).
- Give the recommendation form to your child’s current teacher or caregiver.
- Sign the records release and submit it to your child’s current school.
- Once your application has been received the school will contact you to schedule a parent interview or a student visit.
Once you decide that St. Thomas is the right school for your child and you wish to embark upon the admissions process, feel assured that we are available to answer any questions you may have to guide you through the process. Use the menu on the left to visit additional admissions pages that will provide detailed information about each facet of the admissions process.
Again, we thank you for your interest in St. Thomas School and look forward to speaking with you.
