Admissions & Enrollment

A proposed school for grades six through twelve.

Verae Valores is envisioned as a Grades 6–12 institution, serving students roughly ages eleven to eighteen — the stage at which academic specialization, physical development, world-affairs discussion, and individual ambition pathways can be pursued in earnest.

Where Things Stand

A founding philosophy is established. An operating school is still being built.

Verae Valores should not describe itself as further along than it is. The distinction below is deliberate.

Established

  • Whole-person formation
  • Family partnership
  • A phone-free school day
  • A delayed smartphone culture
  • Individualized ambition pathways
  • Religious accommodation
  • Daily physical development
  • Morning world-affairs discussion
  • Service and charity
  • A strong institutional identity
  • Nonprofit stewardship
  • A selective Founding Circle
  • No more than 100 students, at full capacity

Still Under Development

  • Full curriculum sequence
  • Grade-by-grade course requirements
  • Accreditation path
  • Faculty model
  • Athletic program
  • Campus plan
  • Religious-instruction staffing
  • Tuition and scholarship terms
  • Enrollment calendar
  • Opening date
  • Transportation routes
  • Daily schedule
  • Final governance charter

The Proposed Process

Eight steps, from first conversation to enrollment.

01

Family inquiry

02

Introductory conversation

03

Family application

04

Parent or guardian interview

05

Student conversation and campus experience

06

Academic-readiness review

07

Admissions committee decision

08

Enrollment agreement

What We’re Looking For

The whole student — not only the transcript.

Admission will consider the student as a whole. Academic records and readiness may be reviewed to understand the support and level of challenge a student requires, but admission will not be determined solely by grades or standardized-test performance.

Student character

Curiosity

Discipline

Family alignment

Academic readiness

Willingness to receive correction

Treatment of others

Seriousness of purpose

Capacity to contribute to the school community

Current Status

Admissions are not yet open.

No opening date has been announced, and no application fee has been established. Families may register their interest and request consideration for the founding enrollment process through the Founding Circle.

The limit of 100 students refers to the school’s intended full capacity — not necessarily the size of its opening class.

The Founding Circle

Register your family's interest.

There is no application to submit yet — only a conversation to start. The Founding Circle is how families are involved from the beginning.
