Registration

Families are able to register students at St. Aloysius School during the open registration period. (March through the first day of school.) If you are 
interested in enrolling your children at St. Aloysius School, contact the school office.

Once registration for current students is completed, enrollment is opened to new family and Kindergarten/Kindergarten Readiness registration at Open House usually scheduled during March.

Incoming new students in grades 1-8 must have their current teachers complete a recommendation form prior to acceptance to St. Aloysius School. After receiving the recommendation form, an entrance conference with the principal is then scheduled. Acceptance is determined after the entrance conference. 


Registration is accepted throughout the summer, up until the first day of school. 
When registering a child for the first time, the person responsible for the child 
must present the school with a copy of the child’s birth certificate, a copy of 
records from the previous school of attendance, and court custody documentation if applicable. 

To enroll your child(ren) at St. Aloysius Catholic School, a completed 
registration packet and a registration/materials/learning center fees of $200.00 per child
is required. A formal acceptance letter will be mailed to the student’s home address with a billing statement for tuition. Tuition is then due and payable according to the tuition option chosen.

Kindergarten/Kindergarten Readiness Registration/Admission

For admission to Kindergarten/Kindergarten Readiness, the child must be five years old by September 30th of the academic year. Acceptance into Kindergarten/Kindergarten Readiness will be decided by the Kindergarten Team (principal & teachers) after Kindergarten screening.  All Kindergarten registrants must be screened by our teachers before admission to St. Aloysius School. Previous screenings will be requested for final entrance acceptance. The State of Ohio mandates Kindergarten. Recommendations are made after the evaluation of the screening. Discussion with teachers is suggested when age and scores reflect the child may not be ready for Kindergarten and is recommended for the Kindergarten Readiness program instead.

In the event of limited classroom space, preference in admission is made in the 
following order:
1. Currently registered students of St. Aloysius Catholic School. (K-8)
2. Catholic siblings of currently registered students who are parishioners of St. 
Aloysius Church.
3. Catholic siblings of currently registered students who are parishioners of one of the other area Catholic Parishes. (St. Thomas More, St. Louis Custar)
4. Children of parishioners of St. Aloysius Church.
5. Children of parishioners of other area Catholic Parishes.
6. Siblings of currently registered students who are not Catholic.
7. Children of non-parishioners.
 


Shadowing Program (K-8)

St. Aloysius School offers a shadowing experience to new students who are 
interested in attending St. Aloysius School. Parents may call the school office and arrange a day convenient for parents, student, and teacher(s).

Transfers

Families who wish to transfer students to St. Aloysius School from an out of 
local district school, during the current academic year, must have an entrance conference with the principal. Families are given a tour of the school and acquainted with the philosophy and goals at that time. The prospective new student(s) is/are encouraged to spend a day before formal entrance.

It is the responsibility of the parent to obtain the previous school’s records by signing a release of records at either St. Aloysius School or the previous school. Most schools will mail the records to St. Aloysius School once the record release is signed and received. Students transferring to St. Aloysius 
School after November 1 of the academic school year are required to pay tuition in full. A FACTS payment plan is not available to these families.

Students who transfer to St. Aloysius School from another school shall be accepted after these requirements are met:
1. Parent/Student/Principal Conference
2. A recommendation for admission is received from the previous school or 
homeroom teacher.
3. Parents have presented a copy of the child’s most recent report card, and most recent standardized test scores.
4. Final acceptance is determined by the Principal-Minister.

During the summer, it may be difficult to obtain all of the above information when schools are closed. A telephone call to the principal and teacher (s) of the previous school may give enough information to determine admission until the cumulative folder is received. The final decision of admission in all cases is determined by the Principal-Minister.

The school nurse keeps records of students’ immunization dates on file. Items in 
this file include Physical Examinations, immunization records signed by the 
physician, and any documented health issues provided to the school. All 
immunization dates must include the month, day, year, and physician signature to 
be considered acceptable. All files must be complete by October 15th of the current school year. If not, the student will not be permitted to attend St. Aloysius School.
