Kindergarten – Grade 8 Enrollment Procedures:

Please click HERE to view our Enrollment Procedures for the Pre-Kindergarten Program

STEP 1:

Call the school at (860) 643-5088 x155 or e-mail Admissions@SaintTeresaCatholic.org to request information and/or schedule a visit.  You may also complete our Information Request Form.

STEP 2:

Complete our online Application Form. Please note a non-refundable $30 fee will be collected during the application process.

Our admissions department will then contact you to schedule a Kindergarten Screening or Placement Test (Grades 1-8).  Prior to the appointment, you will be required to submit copies of the following:

  1. A copy of your child’s Birth Certificate
  2. A copy of your child’s most recent standardized test scores (if applicable)
  3. A copy of your child’s most recent report card
  4. A copy of any planning/placement/special services reports pertaining to your child
  5. A copy of your child’s Baptismal Certificate (if applicable)
  6. A completed Kindergarten Transition Form (for students entering Kindergarten from a preschool other than Saint James only)

We also strongly encourage new students entering grades 3-8 to “shadow” a current Saint James School student for a day prior to acceptance.  This helps your child get the full experience of coming to our school and allows us to get to know your child a little better.  This can be scheduled for the day of their placement test.

STEP 3:

The first round of acceptance letters will be mailed home in March.  For later applicants, acceptance letters will be sent based on space availability as well as completion/review of of all necessary paperwork and assessments.

Once you receive your acceptance letter, in order to secure a spot for your child, the completed family registration documentation and tuition contract must be completed by the deadline noted in the acceptance letter.  Along with the paperwork, a registration fee will hold a spot for your child(ren).  This is a non-refundable fee, however it will be applied towards your annual tuition amount.

Welcome to SJS!
