How to apply

 

“The gift of knowledge is a life-long blessing. The skill of discernment is critical for life-directing choices. The building of a child’s character satisfies a parent’s duty to pass on values. The teachers and staff at St. Stephen’s Academy are able partners to these tasks, and we are pleased to call them ‘family’.”

Students

  1. A child will usually have reached the age of five years by September 1 of the fall in which he would be entering kindergarten.
  2. A child entering first grade will usually have reached the age of six years by September 1 of the fall in which she would enter St. Stephen's.

Parents

  1. Though not required to be Christians, the parents of students at St. Stephen's Academy should have a clear understanding of the educational philosophy and mission of St. Stephen's Academy. This understanding includes their willingness to have their child exposed to the clear teaching of the school's Statement of Faith in various and frequent ways within the school's program.
  2. The parents should be willing to cooperate with all the written policies of St. Stephen's Academy. This is most important in the area of discipline and school work standards, as well as active communication with the respective teacher(s) and administration.
