Admission Guidelines
Prospective students are considered for acceptance at St. John the Evangelist School based on the following priorities:
- Children of parishioners who already have children enrolled in the school.
- Children entering kindergarten who have children enrolled in the school.
- Children of parishioners who are entering kindergarten.
- Transferring Catholic students, currently attending another parochial school who become members of SJE parish.
- Catholics who are members of other parishes
- Non-Catholic families
These priorities are guidelines only. The Pastor and Principal have discretionary authority over the application of these guidelines. A student shall be admitted if he/she has a reasonable hope of successfully completing the academic program at St. John the Evangelist School. Students will be admitted on a probationary basis, for the duration of 1 trimester, at which time an assessment will be made as to their academic/behavioral progress.
Students entering Kindergarten must be 5 years old on, or before, September 1. Student transfers into Grades 7-8 will only be considered for students transferring from another Catholic school to St. John the Evangelist School.
