INTERVIEW     The next step toward enrollment after mailing or bringing the Registration Form and Fee to the school office is an interview with the principal. Enrollment procedures will be carefully reviewed for you and plenty of opportunity will be given for your questions. Due to the number seeking enrollment, we greatly encourage new families to interview and take academic assessment tests during restricted enrollment. Acceptance is contingent upon an opening, completion of the above steps, and school board approval.

After acceptance, a request will be made for a complete academic transcript and immunization records to be sent to us by the previous school. In some circumstances a review of the academic record may indicate unsuitability. If at any point we do not believe we can adequately meet your child’s educational needs, acceptance may be withdrawn. In that event, your registration fee will be refunded.

ACADEMIC ASSESSMENT TESTING     After a review of all academic records, the administration may request an assessment test be taken for new students entering grades 1st through 12th.  Results of the testing will be available within 48 hours.

RESTRICTED ENROLLMENT PERIOD     New enrollments are restricted for all grades from February 1st to February 29th.  This brief period is reserved for re-enrolling current students, their siblings and the children of active members of Granite Baptist Church.  After the administration has approved the acceptance of all returning students that have re-enrolled by February 29th, we will begin the enrollment of new students.

WAITING LIST     During restricted enrollment (or if a grade is full), applicants are placed on the waiting list upon payment of the registration fee. You will be notified immediately when an opening occurs.

REGISTRATION/RE-ENROLLMENT FEE     Payment of the new registration/re-enrollment fee confirms registration. Because space in some classes is limited, WE URGE YOU TO REGISTER EARLY. Please make your registration fee as a separate check. Do not combine the registration fee with your book fee or tuition payment.

CLASSROOM CURRICULUM/MATERIAL FEE     This fee covers the cost of textbooks, workbooks, computer software, curriculum materials and certain classroom supplies and equipment.  We offer discounts for early payment of this fee; however, all fees must be paid by August 1st. Please make your classroom curriculum/material fee as a separate check. Do not combine this fee with the registration fee or tuition payment.

TUITION
Total annual tuition is divided into 10 monthly payments and is due on the first day of each month from August through May. For additional information, please read the back of the Parent Cooperation Agreement.
