FIRST STEPS
Our Admissions Process
Decisions about where and how to educate your child are among the most important you will make as a parent. The Fletcher School is committed to the principle that education is a partnership with parents.
We offer a distinctly Christian and distinctively classical form of education designed to create life-long learners who pursue truth, beauty, and goodness in all endeavors. Our curriculum acknowledges that Christ rules over all creation and is at the core of what we teach, hence the name. Our teachers love their students and are intentional about educating the whole person made in the image of God. We’d be delighted to receive your application today.

4. Schedule Your Student for Testing and Interview
Every new student is tested for their academic and behavioral preparation for The Fletcher School. The testing process takes about 30-40 minutes and helps our teachers assess the likely success of a student in the grade for which he or she applied. No specific score is required. Rather we judge the general preparation of student in core subjects like math, reading, and writing.
5. Schedule a Parent Interview
All parents or guardians are interviewed by an administrator at The Fletcher School. This helps us to assess new applicants based on our school’s vision and culture. Families are assessed based upon: 1) Family Support, 2) A family faith that aligns with our statement of faith, 3) A basic understanding of classical Christian education, and 4) Application documents turned into the office.
