Admissions:
Santiago Dear Parents:
First of
all we would like to thank you for considering
Attached you will find the information
about the school admissions requirements for the year 2007-2008. For Elementary,
Middle, and High school students, parents are requested
to bring update transcripts
that confirm the grade level of the student and a good academic performance from
their previous school.
A development inventory is administered to the students applying
from Toddlers to Pre-first. These inventories assess the development in cognitive, motor,
and social emotional areas. The registration form is signed by parents
during this meeting.
The admissions department also requires a duplicate of the progress report
from the previous school where the student is currently enrolled.
The registration form, developmental inventory, and entrance
exams are pondered by the academic principal who makes the final
decision concerning the admission of the student. All this information is registered and kept in our
database.
Students applying for 4th grade and upper levels should also be
able to handle reading and writing skills at a basic level in both
languages (English and Spanish).
Students will take psychological test and entrance exams.
The dean of admissions and our academic
coordinators correct entrance exams. During
the meeting, the registration form is signed by the parents.
The academic principal, in order to decide on the admission of the
student, pondered the registration form, update transcripts, and entrance
exams. All this information is registered and kept in our database.
If coming from a school abroad, students from 7th grade on should
follow the procedure established by the Dominican Ministry of Education
to validate the academic program taken in their previous school. New
Horizons should then place the student in the grade level determined by
the Dominican Ministry of Education.
The results of the entrance exams will be communicated verbally to the
parents within ten days (workdays). If the student is accepted, the
family will have a limit of 15 workdays from the date the results were
communicated to formally register the students. If the parents have not
formalized the registration by the end of the deadline, the space
available will be given to others who wish to register.
It is important to remember that the school works with a limited number
of spaces per grade, and the
interviews offered to the parents interested in our institution depend on this availability. The space will be taken only with the formal registration
of the student after the fulfillment of the required process of our
Registration Department, authorization by the Dominican State Board of
Education, and the requirements of our Administrative Department.
The evaluation has the following cost(not refundable): 5th to 8th: $1,725.00 1st to 4th: 1,370.00 Pk to PP: 1,200.00 Toddlers: 685.0
Finally, we remain at your disposition for any further details
and we hope you can come to visit our campus.
