Admissions Policies & Procedures

• At least one of the child's parents or guardians must be a Christian who agrees with and supports in action the purposes and policies of the school.

• We ask all parents to read and sign the school's "Statement of Faith."

• Previously enrolled students and their immediate families have first priority. When teachers and staff apply for admission of their first child, they will have the same priority as students enrolled in the school.

• Morning Star Academy wants each student to have the best possible academic experience. However, if it becomes apparent that our school cannot adequately address the special educational needs of a given student, parents will be advised to seek another educational placement.

• Students entering kindergarten are required to be 5 years old by September 15.

• Students entering first grade are required to be 6 years old by September 15.

• Students transferring to Morning Star Academy from another school must have a good record of conduct, character, attitude, and attendance. Final admissions acceptance will be subject to approval of records by Morning Star Academy.

• A student's academic achievements will be considered in the application process, but only for grade placement, not as the primary determinant for acceptance. Again, we are seeking to enroll those students who, because of their own families' priorities, will most benefit from what Morning Star Academy can offer to them.

• Morning Star Academy is operated as an educational institution for the benefit of the Christian families in our community. Students are admitted without regard to race, color, or national or ethnic origin. Morning Star Academy does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, or national or ethnic origin in the administration of its policies or programs.


• It is important to understand that attendance at Morning Star Academy is a privilege and not a right; that privilege may be forfeited by any student or family who does not conform to the standards and regulations of the institution. Morning Star Academy may at any time request the withdrawal of a student who, in the opinion of Morning Star Academy, is not in harmony with the spirit of the institution, regardless of whether or not he conforms to the specific rules and regulations of Morning Star Academy.

• Initial admittance to Morning Star Academy does not imply automatic readmission. Morning Star Academy reserves the right to refuse admission or readmission to any prospective or returning student. Applicants who withhold pertinent information, or who falsify information, may be required to withdraw from Morning Star Academy.
