Our Admissions Process

​

1.  CLICK HERE to complete our Initial Inquiry form. We are happy to answer any questions that you may have and /or schedule a meeting and school tour.

​

2.  Our Director of Admissions, Megan Amundson, will be in contact with you via phone or email.

​

3.  A meeting with our Principal along with a tour of the school will be scheduled.  Please note that meetings/school tours are available Monday through Friday 9:00am-2:00pm when school is in session.  It is important that prospective families experience our school community in action when our students/faculty are present to fully observe the joy and vibrancy of SJRS. If you are traveling from out-of-town to visit the school or it is the summer, we will make every effort to accommodate your schedule. 

​

4.  Once you confirm your interest in SJRS, you will be asked to complete our online application, including a $20 application fee. The link for the online application will be emailed to you directly from our Admissions Office.

​

*Please note: The order of the steps of our process may be adjusted accordingly by the Director of Admissions, depending on the time of year and/or the grade of a prospective student. For example, if a grade of interest is currently full, a shadow day (but not an application yet) may be appropriate in anticipation of a possible spot opening up in the future.

​

5.  We require a shadow day for all prospective students in Grades 1-8 (half day for Grades 1-2; full day for Grades 3-8). Our Director of Admissions will work with your family to find a suitable day.  Prospective students will be paired up with one of our current students in the same grade to serve as a guide and ambassador throughout the day. Shadow days are valuable as they give both students and parents an accurate, firsthand experience at SJRS. It is an opportunity for students to meet the teachers, interact with classmates, observe how classes are taught, and engage directly with our school community. 

​

6.  An official decision will be made and communicated.

​

7.  To hold your child's spot, you will be asked to complete enrollment forms online and pay the enrollment fee.

8.  Apply for financial assistance, if interested/eligible. Please CLICK HERE for details.
