Process for Acceptance into Immaculata
Attendance at Immaculata is a privilege. Our goal is to find motivated, caring children and families who are strong in their faith and commitment to excellence. Acceptance into Immaculata is a five-step process.
STEP 1: Application. Complete this Application and submit to Leslie Stott, Administrative Assistant, in person or email a scanned copy to lstott@immac.org.
STEP 2: Parent Q&A. After we review the Application, someone at Immaculata will be in touch to setup a 15- to 20-minute phone interview. This is an opportunity for families to gather more information about what makes Immaculata special and an opportunity for us to ask questions that help us assess if this is a good fit for your family and our school community.
STEP 3: Child Shadow & Assessment. It is our hope to find the best match for our students. We ask every child to shadow at Immaculata for a minimum of half a school day. During this Shadow Day we will complete formal assessments. Plus, your child(ren) gets to see what a day feels like and gets to connect with our wonderful students and staff.
STEP 4: Parent Interview. This is typically completed at the end of the same day as Child Shadow & Assessment. It is another touchpoint for us to ask additional questions about how we might be able to help your child and for you to get additional insights into what makes Immaculata a special school environment.
STEP 5: Enrollment. Once these steps are completed families are asked to submit Enrollment paperwork.
