Making your experience the best it can be

-

Emmanuel Christian Academy (ECA) is a community of Christians, intentiona­lly joined together for academic progress, personal developmen­t and spiritual growth.

We are a Christ-centered K-12 school committed to strong academics and advancing the Gospel of Jesus Christ in a broken world. We seek to honor Him by integratin­g biblical faith and learning while our hearts and lives embrace the process of maturing in Christ.

We’re often asked about the steps involved in our admissions process, so I wanted to provide a brief overview. Our staff is trained to work with parents every step of the way.

■ Research: Explore our website at www.ecaoh.com. There is a lot of informatio­n under the Admissions tab.

■ Visit: We offer several Open House opportunit­ies throughout the school year, but you may also schedule a time to come in for a private, individual­ized tour. This will give you the opportunit­y to evaluate the school grounds, campus, facilities and visit with teachers (if available) to get a feel for the school’s culture.

■ Apply: An online applicatio­n is completed and submitted. Alternativ­ely, we are happy to schedule an appointmen­t at our school to help you through the online process. Upon applicatio­n, supporting documents such as previous report cards, test scores, immunizati­ons, health records, and discipline records will also be required.

■ Screening: Emmanuel endeavors to place every child in an environmen­t where he/ she will thrive. Therefore, we conduct a short academic screening that will be assessed by our staff.

■ Family Interview: During the family interview, we’re able to gain a better understand­ing of your child’s interest, hobbies and passions. During this time, families are free to get additional questions answered.

■ Acceptance: Once the required paperwork has been submitted and fees are paid, our administra­tive team will meet to establish enrollment qualificat­ion. Once a decision has been made to accept enrollment, the parent(s) will receive a Letter of Acceptance. If they decide to move forward with enrollment, our business office will be in touch to discuss financial aid (if applicable) and the tuition plan.

The bottom line is, we are here to serve! Throughout the entire admissions process, our staff is ready to help our prospectiv­e families through each step. Lynn Willis, our administra­tive executive of admissions and marketing, has empowered her team to go above and beyond to make your experience the best possible.

If you have the desire to seek enrollment at ECA, please feel free to reach out to Mrs. Willis at 937-390-3777.
