Admission Policy

Enrollment at Simpson County Academy must follow these guidelines:

• Parents and prospective student(s) must file an application of admission and meet with a member of the Admissions team.

• This application will be reviewed by the admissions committee. Once parents apply for admission to SCA, they are giving consent for the student to participate in drug testing at the school's discretion.

• Students presently enrolled at SCA who are in good standing academically and behaviorally and current on fees and tuition will be allowed to pre-register for the following school year before enrollment is opened to other students.

• Students will be enrolled on a probationary one year period from the date of enrollment. Academic progress and conduct during this period will determine continued enrollment.

• Students may only be enrolled if there is a vacancy in that particular class. The SCA policy on enrollment capacity must not be exceeded.

• Transfer students may be asked to submit a criminal background check provided to SCA before being considered for enrollment.

• Failure to disclose prior suspensions, expulsions, arrests, or positive drug test can result in the termination of the application or enrollment.

Simpson County Academy does not have an independent special education program.

Admittance of students with special learning needs will be at the discretion of the Admissions committee after a thorough review of the student's academic record.

• Completed new student application

• Birth Certificate

• Immunization Form 121 with updated K3, K4-6th Grade, or 7th Grade Tdap

Once all documentation is received, potential students must pay a $25 fee in order to complete an entrance exam through Academic Excellence. Once the test results are in, our Admissions Team will look at all documentation as well as any discipline records from the prior school and make a recommendation to the Headmaster for admittance.
