New Student Online Application Process

Step 1:  Submit Online Application

All applicants must submit an online application. Upon submission of application, supporting documents, and online payment of the non-refundable application fee, the Admissions Department will notify the parent/guardian of next steps including if space is available in the desired grade level or if there is a wait pool.

Step 2: Review of School Records & Assessments

For incoming 1st-12th grade students, parents must provide a Records Request Form to the previous school. When students apply to ECS from another school whose standardized assessments differ from ours or from non-state accredited institutions such as homeschool, they will be required to meet minimum placement testing requirements in both Math and ELA for entrance into the desired grade level.

Step 3:  Partnership Meeting with Principal

After review of the full application and records, the Admissions Committee will decide to schedule a partnership meeting with the principal for all students of families who would be new to ECS if the student meets admission criteria. The applicant and at least one parent/guardian will attend.

For current ECS families enrolling siblings, partnership meetings will be scheduled for new 1st-12th grade students. A meeting is only required for PS/PK/K students who are siblings of current families when the new student has special circumstances such as resource support needs.

Refer to the Admission Process page for details explaining the rest of the admission process.
