4. Submit Records

All medical records (i.e., immunizations, etc.) and any other required documents must be submitted by deadlines established by the Academy for enrollment to be officially in force.

Holy Angels Academy must abide by the State of Kentucky standards in certain regards.

Should any parents file for medical exemptions, it is incumbent upon them to provide approved documentation to the Academy.

5. Submit Registration and Textbook/Supplies Fee

Once you’ve completed the forms you downloaded above, one for each child, please send us the completed forms and any records you wish to include.

You are welcome to mail these to us at the address below, bring them to the school during school hours, or send them electronically by clicking below.

If submitting electronically, payment for fees should be sent to the school via mail or dropped off during school hours.

All fees must be submitted by the designated deadline (listed in packet downloaded above) for enrollment to be in force.

6. Complete Interview

Should the application and accompanying documents indicate that a student is eligible to pursue enrollment, then the family will be notified to arrange an interview.

The interview session gives parents an opportunity to expound upon their reasons for desiring the enrollment of their children.

Additionally, a more in depth presentation is given regarding the religious education, character formation and classical curriculum.

7. Sign Statement of Parental Agreement

This is normally signed and submitted at the conclusion of the interview should the student(s) be accepted.

It must be submitted as an enrollment requirement.

Admissions Policy

Non-Discrimination Statement

• Holy Angels Academy admits students of any race, color, nationality, or ethnic origin to all the rights, privileges, programs, and activities generally accorded or made available to students at the school.  It does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national and ethnic origin in the administration of its educational policies and athletic and other school-administered programs.
• Holy Angels, however, does not have the personnel nor the facilities to effectively address the needs of children who have emotional or behavioral problems or learning disabilities that require special programs.

Catholic Families 

• Holy Angels Academy, as a Roman Catholic school, professes to support all the teachings of the Catholic Church as pronounced by the Magisterium.  It is assumed that Catholic families seeking admission support the Academy in this profession and would only contribute to the harmonious spirit needed for their children to benefit from the education offered at Holy Angels fully.

 Families of Other Faith Backgrounds

• Families of other Faiths are more than welcome to inquire, but preference is given to Catholic families when considering space availability.  When families of other Faiths are accepted, it is understood that they support the policies contained herein, including the policy that their children will be receiving religious instruction in the Catholic Faith and that they will be expected to attend Holy Mass and take part in any religious devotions or activities of the Academy.  Parents of children of other Faiths, as do Catholic parents, further agree that their children are not permitted to debate the validity of Catholic teachings.  However, this does not prohibit honest inquiry.
• Any participation in secular activities expected of Catholic students is also expected of students of other Faiths.  These may include civic activities that support a moral position compatible with the beliefs professed by the Catholic Church.  One such example would be pro-life rallies opposing abortion held on school premises or elsewhere.

Readmission

• If a family withdraws from Holy Angels and then expresses a desire to re-enroll, the Academy may refuse enrollment or require the family to complete the interview and registration process once again.  This applies to all grade levels.  Reasons to refuse readmission could be anything deemed by the administration to be detrimental to the harmony at Holy Angels Academy.  Reasons may include but are not limited to the following:
• Previous lack of support for the philosophy or policies of the school by parents or students.
• Previous lack of cordial cooperation with, and support for, the teachers and administration.
• Previous withdrawal that reflected negatively on the reputation of the Academy or its teachers.
• A determination by the administration that a student acclimated to another program will have difficulty readjusting at Holy Angels.
• A determination by the administration that a student’s learning or behavioral needs will be better served elsewhere.

Transfer Requests

• It should be noted that students who request a transfer to Holy Angels Academy from another high school program, including any type of schooling program, may be denied admission due to certain considerations.  Admission is on a case-by-case basis.  Although not meant to be all-inclusive, practical reasons that follow may determine that Holy Angels is not suited to accommodate some students: 
• availability of course offerings, 
• courses/credits required, 
• acclimation to the cultural environment and/ or the academic rigor at HAA, 
• fairness to currently enrolled students regarding grade point average.

Readmission Requests

• The norm is to deny readmission requests at the high school level. Practical reasons include but are not limited to, those on the list for transfer students (noted in No. 1 above). Only unusual circumstances would allow consideration to readmit students who have already attended, withdrawn, and then wish to re-enroll.  Instances for readmission include past withdrawal due to a yearlong chronic illness or a return after an out-of-town relocation. Readmission is usually denied after withdrawing to pursue an alternative curriculum, extra-curricular or sports activities, or alternative instructors.  Readmission is left to the administration’s discretion, and reasons to deny such are not limited to those stated herein.
