Application Process

Students who are interested in attending Annunciation Catholic School for the 2011 - 2012 school year must complete an application with an application fee, and submit academic transcripts, letters of recommendation, standardized test scores, Birth Certificate, and Baptismal Certificate (if Roman Catholic) before February 15, 2011.

Students who have completed an application are required to complete a classroom shadow visit. Our academic day runs from 8:10 A.M. to 3:00 P.M. All applicants arrive in the morning and attend classes with the students. For example, a student applying for Sixth Grade in the Fall would attend morning classes with the current Fifth Grade. This allows the applicant a chance to interact with their future classmates and teachers as well as to see what a typical day is at Annunciation. All applicants should bring a snack, and applicants for Grades 2 through 7 should bring lunch.

Interviews will take place at the time of the student’s visit. These interviews are informal opportunities for a member of the Admissions Committee to meet a prospective student, answer any questions, and to learn more about their academic and personal interests. Students in Pre-Kindergarten through Grade 1 spend a half-day visiting Annunciation. Students in Grade 2 through 7 spend an entire day. The morning is with the current students, and the afternoon is for the applicant to complete a reading assessment to determine reading level. Applicants in Grades 4 through 7 also complete a math assessment to determine academic level. It is not necessary for the parents to stay with the applicant since this is an opportunity for the Annunciation community to meet and interact with the student.

Annunciation Catholic School will schedule an appointment for the required admissions testing (math and reading) and shadow visit once the completed application is submitted and initial review is completed. Please note that shadow visits will not be scheduled until all application materials are completed, including academic transcripts and letters of recommendation from the applicant’s current teacher(s).

Once all application requirements are completed, decision letters will be mailed the week following Admissions Testing/Shadow Visit.

Full disclosure of student information is expected from the parent/guardian. All information must be furnished for the application to be processed. Application does not guarantee acceptance or admission.
