Admission to Mt. Helix Academy is based on an entrance assessment that includes an evaluation of the prospective student’s academic and social skills as well as an interview with her/his parents. In what must necessarily be a brief period, we nevertheless endeavor to ensure that the school and the parents are of a common mind concerning the prospective student’s education and that the school is likely to be able to provide the prospective student with an effective educational program, one leading to an enjoyment associated with learning and high academic achievement. Families are welcome to apply for admission at any time, and we accept students based on space availability.
