Admissions

St. Joseph the Worker Catholic Academy admits students of any race, color, national / ethnic origin to all rights and privileges, programs, and activities generally accorded or made available to the students of the school. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national/ethnic origins in the administration of educational policies, admission policies, loan programs, and athletic or school-administered programs.

All children, regardless of grade, must bring:

  • a copy of the child’s birth certificate
  • an updated copy of the child’s immunization record
  • proof of address upon entering SJWCA


KINDERGARTEN – 1ST GRADE

Kindergarten children must be 5 years of age on or before Dec. 31 of the school year in which they are enrolling. The child must be completely toilet trained before he/she begins school. There are no exceptions to this requirement.

First Grade students must be 6 years of age or older before Dec. 31 of the school year in which they are applying, and must meet the same requirements as younger children.

Students applying as a new student or transferring in from another school include the following with their application:

  • a copy of the most recent report card
  • a copy of the most recent Standardized Test results in which the child participated
  • a copy of the I.E.P. if applicable. If you intentionally withhold information regarding an I.E.P. it can constitute grounds for dismissal of the child from school.
  • If the student is transferring from another Catholic school, we require a letter from the school attesting that there are no outstanding financial obligations to the former school/parish.
