K-12 Admissions
Admissions play a huge role in defining the culture of a school. Seven Rivers values relationships. Therefore, our admissions process reflects our mission and seeks students who not only can benefit and be blessed by our program, but who will also contribute to the fabric of our school community. Admissions decisions in grades K-12 are guided by the criteria listed below.

Admissions Criteria |
Academic Considerations
For students entering Kindergarten, a satisfactory readiness screening is required. In grades 1-12, an in-house academic screening will be conducted, including an evaluation of students' previous grades, standardized tests, and teacher recommendation.
Behavioral Considerations
Students must be in good standing with their current school. Students receiving significant discipline censure including expulsion, involuntary withdrawal, or repeated suspension - or students involved in criminal activity - will not be considered.
Questionnaires
Responses from the family recommendation form and parent/student questionnaires allow us to begin to know the student and family.
Family Interview
The admissions team considers the information provided by families, teachers, and the student, along with personal interactions during the interview, to evaluate the family's compatibility with the school mission. The interview also affords a unique opportunity for reiterating the philosophy of SRCS, sharing information about our program and procedures, and beginning to build a partnership with the family.

Application Process |
If your child has an IEP, 504, Service Plan, or disciplinary report, these must be submitted to SRCS prior to filling out an application.
