• School Transcripts

  Transcripts should include all grades as well as standardized test results from 6th grade, 7th grade, and the 1st marking period of 8th grade. The applicant’s school may require a release of records form, which may be downloaded below ("9th Grade Applicant Record"). This expedites the process and saves you time. Please instruct the guidance counselor or principal to send the transcripts before the deadline of December 10, 2021. If your school is on a trimester that ends after December 10, please have those transcripts sent immediately after the close of term as well as inform our Admissions office.
