ADMISSIONS PROCEDURES

GENERAL INFORMATION
New Covenant Academy, located in Springfield, Missouri, is a dually accredited Christian college preparatory school with a challenging academic program. Because of the nature of the program, certain students, (especially those who may have learning difficulties or may have trouble following directions) may have difficulty in meeting the Academy´s standards. Therefore, the admission process is designed to identify those students entering grades Junior Kindergarten through 12 who demonstrate motivation and the ability to fulfill the Academy´s academic, character, spiritual, and behavior requirements and standards. In reviewing applications, the Admissions Officer considers educational performance, standardized test results, teacher and pastor recommendations, and individual and family characteristics. Tuition assistance is offered, based on family need, only to qualifying students who have been accepted for admission. New Covenant Academy does not discriminate based on age, race, gender, color or national or ethnic origin.
