Admissions Process
The admissions team looks forward to reviewing your application materials. We are confident that your child and family will be a wonderful addition to our school community. Students shall be admitted to St. Catherine of Siena School if they have a reasonable, well founded hope of successfully completing the school’s program, provided there is space available.
In addition to reviewing a complete application, our school conducts an assessment of the child, according to their educational background and special needs. This process ensures that the child is placed in the appropriate grade level, so that we can best meet your child’s educational needs.
Testing
Kindergarten readiness and grade-level testing are done with an appointment with the teacher.
Shadow Day
We encourage prospective students to participate in a half day or full day Shadow Day to engage what learning looks like at St. Catherine of Siena School. Please make an appointment with the principal.
