Admissions

We are currently accepting applications for 2008-2009. We are enrolling children in Kindergarten through Fourth Grade.

We will begin accepting applications for the 2009-2010 school year, grades K-5, in October 2008. These applications will all be entered into a Lottery, which will be drawn in March 2009.

We strongly urge you to tour the school during school hours before you officially enroll your child at SBCS. You are welcome to visit the school any time of year, and to visit often!

STEP ONE
Send in a Pre-enrollment Form. If space is available, we will notify you that your child has a spot. If we do not have space available, we will notify you that your child will be put on a wait list.

The lottery for 2008-2009 was drawn on March 19, 2008. If your child is on the wait list, please feel free to call the school for up-to-the-minute information on your child's status.

STEP TWO
Send back the Letter of Intent Form. Once your child has a spot, we will send you a Letter of Intent Form, asking you to verify that you still want the spot.

STEP THREE
Send in the Registration Forms. Once you have returned the Letter of Intent Form, we will send you the Registration Forms. We must receive these by June 15, 2008 in order to hold your child's spot.

The registration forms are listed below. Use the checklist to determine the forms you need. All forms are readable in Adobe Acrobat format.
