Process
The admissions process at SA is about building a relationship of understanding. We seek to know more about your child and family and for your family to learn more about us. Our process helps to determine who we can best serve as well as appropriate grade placement. Prospective students are accepted based upon the review of all required data pieces. We look forward to learning more about your child!
