Grades 1- 8 Screening
Parents of presently enrolled students must inform the school in January that they plan to return the following school year. When we have an estimate of the number of openings available, we will invite applicants for class visits during the month of February. During their day at Assumption, they will participate in the class activities and have an opportunity to see the school in session. They will be assessed in math and literacy to determine their foundational skills in relation to the other children in the class and grade level.

Selection And Notification
Parents will be notified by letter of the admission decision in late February. When your child is accepted, you will have 5 working days to enroll by paying a nonrefundable registration fee. Plus an additional fee for 1st child to set up FACTS account for the upcoming school year.

Once the classes are filled the remaining applications are kept on file. If an opening occurs, we will contact you to see if you are still interested in enrolling your child. All remaining applications will be kept on file until December of the application year. Parents must reapply to be considered for the following school year.
