Admissions Requirements for the Student
A child must have reached the age of 5 by November 1st of the year in which he would be entering kindergarten; 6 by December 1st for entrance into the first grade; 7 by December 1st for entrance into second grade and so on. There is some flexibility on these age requirements. The Head of School will make a final determination.
The student should understand that his parents have delegated their authority to the school during the school day. Therefore, the child is subject to the instruction and discipline of the teacher and the Head of School in their prescribed roles at Beacon Hill Classical Academy. The child should also understand clearly that all authority is derived from God. Beacon Hill teachers will appeal to God’s authority over the student continually.
Admissions Requirements for the Parents
Parents of Beacon Hill students should have a clear understanding of the biblical philosophy and purpose of Beacon Hill Classical Academy. This understanding includes a willingness to have their child discipled according to the school’s Statement of Faith.
Parents are required to cooperate with all the written policies of Beacon Hill Classical Academy. This is especially important in the area of discipline and schoolwork standards.
Parents are required to serve 15 hours each year for Beacon Hill or be billed $20 an hour--in a one-time fee of $300 or $20 for each of the remaining unserved hours. These hours can be completed by volunteering in class, fundraising, organizing field trips, teaching enrichment classes, among many other things. Education is a partnership between teacher and parent, and we especially enjoy having parents volunteer in the classroom.
