APPLICATION PROCESS
We are grateful for your interest in St. Scholastica Academy and look forward to getting to know your family. Because we are a small school with a distinct mission, we ask that parents begin by contacting the school to learn more about our program and to discern together whether St. Scholastica Academy is a good fit for your family—and whether we are able to serve your child well. During this initial conversation, we will also share information about our current waiting list.
​
After speaking with the principal and scheduling a tour of the school, families are welcome to move forward with the application process. Please note that submitting an application does not guarantee acceptance.
​
If a student is accepted, a formal family interview will follow. This meeting allows us to discuss in greater detail the expectations and commitments of St. Scholastica Academy, including the partnership we seek with parents in the education and formation of their children.

The application form is available below and is currently offered as a printable document. If you would prefer to have a copy mailed to you, please contact the school office and we will be happy to assist you.
