STEP
1:
Request an Information Packet.
Review our
Information Packet including our School Handbook, which should allow
you to become aware of Shenandoah Valley Christian Academy’s
educational philosophy of educating your child.
STEP 2:
Schedule a Tour and
Information Session.
Once you have read our school handbook and have made the
decision to pursue your child’s enrollment at SVCA, please call the
Marketing and Development Office at
540.868.4046 to
schedule a tour and information session. We will use this time to
see the school as well as discuss the programs that we have
available for your student. Please bring the following items with
you:
q
A transfer student needs a copy of their most recent report card
q
A
home-schooled student needs their most recent test scores
STEP
3:
Receive an
Application Packet.
During the tour and information session, you will be given an
application packet for your family. To schedule an Admissions
Interview with a SVCA administrator, you will need to return the
following items to the Office of Marketing and Development:
q
Completed application packet
q
The
student’s most recent standardized test scores
o
If
standardized test scores within 18 months of the date of application
are not available, diagnostic testing must be administered by SVCA
prior to the Parent-Student Interview. The fee for this test is $30
and must be paid prior to the testing date.
q
$100
application fee (per family)
Please note that an
interview will not be scheduled until all paperwork is returned.
STEP 4:
Schedule an
Admissions Interview.
A SVCA
administrator will interview the parent(s) and the student. If the
student is above the third grade level, the student is required to
attend the interview. This will be an opportunity to discuss
specific spiritual and educational needs of the student and how SVCA
can meet those needs. There are times that we may require additional
information or placement testing results before informing the
parents of the acceptance decision.
STEP 5:
Complete
Registration.
Once your student’s
acceptance into SVCA is decided, you have 10 days to please complete
and return the following to the School Office:
q
Tuition Agreement
q
$100 Registration Fee (per student)
q
Student Emergency Information form (per student)
q
Up-to-date immunization records
q
An
“Original, Certified Copy” of the student’s birth certificate.
o
A
copy will be made of the birth certificate, and the original will be
returned.
After 10 days, your
student’s enrollment will not be guaranteed. Once the registration
information has been received, you will receive documentation from
SVCA to verify your student’s enrollment. If applicable, SVCA will
be responsible for requesting official transcripts from the
student’s current school.
Once your student
is enrolled in the school, they may be asked to undergo a series of
diagnostic testing to determine how well they will perform at the
current grade level. In addition, your student will receive the
necessary information specific for their grade.
