Admissions Process

We are pleased that you are seeking admission to Legacy Christian Academy. Admission at Legacy Christian Academy is highly competitive; therefore we follow an admittance process that allows us to work individually with each applicant family. The process begins when all application information is complete and all required material is returned. Our goal is to grow and develop LCA with strong Christian families. At least one parent must have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ and believe in Him as Lord and Savior. Each prospective student applying for grades 7-12 must profess a personal relationship with Jesus Christ and believe in Him as Lord and Savior. Likewise, the student should have a strong desire to be at LCA and have no history of discipline problems. Parents of all applicants, as well as students in grades 6-12, will be interviewed by the admissions team.

Priority of Admissions

During re-enrollment period, current students and siblings of currently enrolled students have first priority. Once open enrollment begins in February for the following school year, only an executed enrollment agreement guarantees enrollment. When classes are full, your child will be placed in the wait pool for that grade. This is not a wait list with a priority listing. When an opening becomes available, the admissions committee will review the wait pool candidates.

Application Process

1. LCA requires a complete application returned to the school in order for us to begin the admissions process. The complete application provides us a view of the student’s strengths and weaknesses which allows us proper discernment throughout the admissions process. The application is considered complete when all supplemental documents have been received. Supplemental Documents to the Application are:

• $100  Non-refundable Application Fee
• Confidential Church Involvement Form
• Copy of Birth Certificate
• Copy of Current Immunization Record
• Current Report Card/Transcript

• Assessment (Admissions Testing) Forms completed and returned to the Admission Office.

2. Admission Assessment scheduled, completed and results received.

3. Meet with the Admissions team for interviews. Because each family dynamic is different, our admissions interviews may be multi-faceted. This provides us with the needed insight to ensure each student’s success prior to enrollment.
