Now accepting applications for 2010-2011
Lighthouse Christian Academy always invites applicants, and although the usual points of entry are at Kindergarten, 6th grade and 9th grade, we accept new students at all other grades.
Space Availability
In grades other than kindergarten, the number of openings is dependent on withdrawals, the number of which is confirmed after reenrollment every spring. Competition can be keen, and there are usually more qualified applicants than spaces. Thus, please ensure that all documentation is submitted in a timely manner. Incomplete applications will not be considered.
Admissions Process
* To obtain an application packet, you may:
(1) visit our office to pick one up in person
(2) download one from our website, or
(3) contact our school office and request that a packet be mailed to you.
* Please contact our school office if you wish to arrange for a school tour.
* Preschool applicants are accepted on a year-round, space-available basis.
* For Grades K-12, please give reference forms to your child’s current teachers, pastor and administrator by early December.
* Complete and submit all other documentation by January 2.
* For Grades K-12, you will be informed of your child’s admissions test date by e-mail or telephone. Bring your child for admissions testing.

K-12 Testing
We require all K-12 applicants to be tested:

* 12th grade applicants should also submit a copy of their college Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) scores
* Out-of-state applicants should contact the Admissions Office regarding testing
Please note that if a child’s application is incomplete, a test date will not be scheduled until the application is complete.
