Admission decisions are based upon a combination of factors that include admissions testing, previous school records, report cards, standardized test results, teacher recommendations and our observations of the child. Important also are the information and observations that you, who know your child best, share with us. The goal in Admissions is to work closely with a family and with our faculty to ensure that each child will have the support and stimulation needed to flourish at St. Edmund's Academy.

Admissions decisions are based solely on the availability of space and strength of the match between the child and the school. Late and mid-year applications will be considered as space allows.
