Admissions Policy

It is the intention of Haili Christian School to provide the best possible instruction and training.  In keeping with this, the following admission policy has been established.

Readiness is a criterion for admission to any grade.   Achievement test scores are used to assess placement into that grade.

Students with special needs are admitted based on the determination of our ability to meet their needs.  There may be a recommendation for further evaluation as deemed necessary during the application process.

Students who are applying from other schools should have a conduct record that is average or above.  Those who have been suspended or expelled from another school, or who have a juvenile record, should provide evidence that a genuine change or behavior and attitude has occurred before admission will be considered.

The school admits students of any race, color, national and ethnic origin to al the rights, privileges, programs and activities generally accorded or made available to students at the school.   We do not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national or ethnic origin in administration or our educational policies, admission policies, scholarship program, athletic and other school-administered programs.

COMPLETED APPLICATION PACKETS  are submitted to HCS and evaluated prior personal interview.  We are currently accepting applications and will be scheduling a personal interview at the time the completed application packet is received.  There may be need to access a student with an existing learning difference.  At that time, an assessment fee will be charged.
