STUDENT REQUIRMENTS FOR ADMISSION

Academic

• Cumulative records are required and will be requested for all applicants and entrance testing is required; with the exception of students entering kindergarten & pre-kindergarten.
• An application for enrollment is encouraged when student success is predicted and student needs can be met. We realize, however, that Treasure Valley Christian School cannot meet the learning needs of all students. If an applicant’s evaluation data is below grade level, she/he may be required to do remedial work, may be accepted at the previous grade level, or may not be accepted for enrollment. This depends upon the severity of the learning disability or lack of previous education the student may have.
• Disclosure of diagnosed learning problems is necessary and required at the time of application.
• According to State of Oregon regulations, students with suspected disabilities can be assessed at the school, however our school is not equipped to provide services for disabilities.

Behavioral

• The student must evidence age-appropriate stability, attention span, and self-discipline.
• The applicant must display necessary social skills to function in a group.
• For the benefit of school staff and parents who are working together for the success of students, parental disclosure of behavior and emotional difficulties is necessary and required at the time of application.
• The applicant must agree to abide by the rules and regulations of the school.

Spiritual and Motivational

• The applicant must be receptive to spiritual instruction and guidance.
