Conestoga Christian School | Admissions Procedures

Admissions Procedures

All families are asked to complete the Family Application form and submit it to the Director of Development with copies of standardized test scores and the most recent report cards.
1. Students in grades 6-12 should also submit two recommendation forms: one from a pastor; one from another adult
2. Students in grade 9-12 should also submit a New Student Application form
3. Homeschooled students may be asked to present other evaluative materials and/or portfolios

Once the Family Application, report cards/testing information, indicated recommendation forms, and Student Application have been received, a Family Interview is scheduled with the parents, student(s) applying for enrollment, and the Admissions Committee.
1. The Admissions Committee is comprised of the Administrator, the Supervisor of the school to which the student(s) is (are) applying, and a member of the Board.
2. Families can expect this conversation to last about 60 minutes.
3. Every effort is made to conduct the Family Interview within two weeks of receipt of completed application materials. However, this schedule may vary.

Academic assessment is also a part of the application process. The Director of Assessment and Reporting will conduct this assessment of each student applying for enrollment. This assessment is often conducted while parents are completing the Family Interview described above; otherwise, special testing arrangements will be made.

Following the Family Interview, the Admissions Committee will review the completed application forms, the interview reports, and testing results to make a final admissions decision.

Students are considered “enrolled” upon receipt of the $150/child enrollment fee.
Additional arrangements are then made for tuition payment, bus transportation, receipt of immunization and health records, and transfer of permanent school records.
