Admissions Inquiry Form

Student Admission Policy

If a student is interested in attending ASK, forms need to be obtained from the secretary responsible for admission documentation located in room 103. After submitting the necessary documentation, the folders are sent to the relevant school. Students are then given the next testing date available.

Notification of the decision for admittance will be given within one week of the testing date. Students who are accepted into the CDC, Kindergarten I and II classes are accepted provisionally. If there is insufficient progress at the end of first grade, then a recommendation to the administration should be given from which a decision to accept or deny permission to re-enroll.

Students required to repeat a grade level will not be re-enrolled if they do not successfully complete the grade repeated.

Age Requirements:

• A pupil must be 3 years of age by December 31 to be admitted to CDC.
• A pupil must be 4 years of age by December 31 to be admitted to Kindergarten I.
• A pupil must be 5 years of age by December 31 to be admitted to Kindergarten II.
• A pupil must be 6 years of age by December 31 to be admitted to Grade 1.


No student will be admitted after his or her 20th birthday.  A child may be placed provisionally in Grade 1 on the opening of school in September even though he has not attended Kindergarten, provided that the child passes an English proficiency test and attains his sixth birthday by the close of the calendar year and meets the appropriate age requirement.

Within one (1) month of enrollment it will be decided on the basis of readiness, maturity, and social adjustment whether the child may continue in Grade 1 or be transferred to Kindergarten. This decision is made by the elementary principal.

Records needed before testing:

1. Birth certificate
2. Copy of passport for father and child
3. Previous school records
