Coastal Christian High School of Wilmington, NC
Admission Policy1. Acceptance PolicyStudents must (1) score on grade level, (2) complete the application process to be eligible for enrollment, (3) exhibit a desire to grow in a relationship with Jesus Christ, and (4) must have one parent that has professed faith in Jesus Christ and is actively involved in a local church. CCHS has been founded as a college preparatory school; on that basis, an I.Q. score of at least 90 is required for admission. The student candidate must also have a stanine score of over 3 on a recent standardized academic achievement test. The CCHS Board would like to be able to accept students of all ability levels but believes it is unethical to accept tuition from families whose students need a level of help that CCHS would not be able to provide. 2. Enrollment Limitations While it is our desire to meet the needs of every student, CCHS cannot provide enrollment to students whose special education, behavioral, or physical needs exceed our existing programs, services, and staff capabilities. A student may be ineligible for enrollment based on intelligence and/or disabilities (ADD, ADHD, physical, mental, etc.) but will be assessed on an individual basis. Because CCHS is a private school, compliance with IEPs issued by the public school system is not required. 3. Disciplinary Exclusions CCHS does not enroll students who have been dismissed from other schools or who have been in serious disciplinary trouble in a former school. 4. Waiting List In the event that a class is full, a prospective student will be placed on a waiting list. Parents will be notified when space is available. Acceptance is not based on a first-come, first-served policy. Acceptance is based upon student academic needs, boy/girl ratio, and the administrator’s recommendation. In an effort to maintain a balanced boy/girl ratio, gender may also be criteria for placement. 5. Admissions Requirement Exception Exceptions to the above admission policy will require the approval of the Board of Directors. |
