Admissions Process

The admissions process at Ava White Academy is to help the school select students who can benefit from our program and to help parents in selecting the appropriate educational environment for their children.

The Admission Procedure is as follows:

1. Parents or guardians contact the Director to schedule an appointment to discuss the appropriateness of the school for the child.

2. Parents and school officials complete and submit the following:

   • The application;

   • The Teacher recommendation form;

   • The administrator or counselor recommendation form;

   • Copies of current psychological testing (within 3 years); and

   • A non-refundable $150.00 application fee. (If psychological testing is preformed by Dr. Tom White, we will waive $100.00 of application fee.)

3. The director schedules an interview with the child to conduct a formal and informal evaluation of skills.

4. If the child is accepted, the Administration determines the appropriate class placement and notifies the parents as to availability of space.

5. If space is available, a $500.00 deposit is required to hold that space.

6. Upon acceptance you will need to complete an enrollment agreement.
