All students in grades K-8 MUST be up to date on all immunizations. Our school Nurse will screen the incoming Kindergarten students to make sure that they have all their shots before schools starts.

All students entering the Kindergarten must have the following and proof of immunizations submitted to the school before the 1st day of school is in session:

• DPT – 4 doses (5 doses if 4th dose received before 4th birthday).
  7th grade requires one additional dose of TDAP as a booster.
• Polio (OPV or IPV) 4 doses if 3rd dose received before 4th birthday
• Hepatitis B – 3 doses
• MMR – 2 doses
• Varicella – 1 dose

Kindergarten students need 2 doses of Varicella prior to entry to school. Students who are not in compliance with State Law (RC3313.67) on having all required immunizations, will be excluded from class until shot record is current.

Our School Psychologist and/or Counselor will screen new students in grades 3 through 8 for ability and placement. If testing shows that the child does not give promise of successfully completing the academic program or would not be an asset to the school, most of the registration fee will be refunded. It is non-refundable for any other reason.

All testing will be scheduled on a first come, first serve basis, after the $100.00 registration fee has been paid. This DOES NOT reserve a place for your child in any way. It is possible that your child’s grade placement will be closed before testing date. On the day of testing we MUST have your child’s current report card.

Please provide a copy of any IEP and/or Service Plan for the student from the previous school.
