Enrolling now for 2020-21!
Apply early! Each year, we seek families who share our vision to join our community. For new families: January 1 through April 15: Priority Enrollment for new students who will attend during the next school year. New families are encouraged to enroll during this time period in order to get the best chance for acceptance. Considerations for new family acceptance: Family support. A family faith that aligns with our statement of faith. An understanding of classical Christian education. A student’s test results. For older students, their contribution to our school community. None of these are “litmus tests.” Rather, we consider all factors when admitting a new student. We encourage you to attend our Open House on January 21st at 6:00 pm to receive a tour and get your questions answered. If you are a current Ambrose family desiring to enroll another child, please submit a New Student Application For Admission by February 28th in order to receive priority placement. After April 15th: Open Enrollment Any student application received after April 15th is considered, subject to our acceptance criteria, for admission in any remaining openings.
