How to Apply

Step One: Application Materials Submission

Complete the Application Checklist items through Veracross, including:

  • Application Fee of $60

  • A recent photo of your child

  • Teacher Recommendation Form

    • PreK & K: Teacher Recommendation Form to be completed by your child’s current teacher.

    • Grades 1 – 5: Teacher Recommendation Form to be completed by your child’s current teacher.

    • Grades 6 – 8: Teacher Recommendation Form to be completed by both your child’s current Math and English teachers.

  • Records Release Form

    • For Grade 1 – 8 Applicants Only
      Release of Records Form should be submitted to your child’s current school.  This gives your permission for a copy of your child’s transcript from the prior two academic years to be mailed from the current school to St. Peter’s School.

Step Two: Scheduling a Visit

  • Preschool (3-year-olds) and Prekindergarten (4-year-olds) applicants participate in an hourlong group play date at the School:

  • Preschool Play Dates are Saturday, January 6, and Friday, January 12

  • Prekindergarten Play Dates are Saturday, December 9, Friday, January 6, and Friday, January 12

  • Kindergarten through Eighth Grade applicants will spend the morning or a full day participating in classroom activities with grade level peers.

Step Three: Admission Decisions

When your child has completed all of the checklist items in their application, their file will be reviewed by our Admissions Committee. Re-enrollment for current families is completed at the end of January. New applicants will be contacted by the Admissions Office at the end of January or the beginning of February with an admission decision. Families may apply during the spring or summer months, and admissions decisions for these applicants will be made on a rolling basis.
