GRADES 3-11 ASSESSMENT INFORMATION:
All applicants for Grades 3 through 11 are required to submit current MAP (Measure of Academic Progress) test results in English Language Usage, Reading, and Math. Should your child not have these scores from their current school, they can complete the required online assessment through our office.

ENGLISH LANGUAGE LEARNERS:
Certain candidates applying to Grades 2-12 may be required to take an online WIDA Screener assessment with one of our English Language Learner (ELL) teachers. The WIDA Screener is designed for non-native English speakers to assess their English language proficiency level. If this applies to your child, a member of our Admissions Team will reach out to arrange the WIDA Screener session.
