Order of Priority in Admission

At the time of pre-registration in January, Saint Mary Academy will use the following order of priority for admission to the school. Once a grade level is full, all remaining pre-registered students will be placed on a waiting list and will be admitted as openings become available. The order of priority in admission is as follows:

1. Children currently enrolled at Saint Mary Academy (Preschool-Grade Eight) and their siblings;
2. Catholic families who are members of Saint Bernadette parish
3. Catholic families who are members of any other Catholic parish
4. Families who are not Catholic or not members of a parish

Saint Mary Academy does not discriminate on the basis of race, creed, sex, color, or national origin in the admission of its pupils.
