We’re just starting to dip our toes into the second half of this academic year. The Christmas decorations have been put away, we’re digging into an exciting new calendar year, and summer is not even on the horizon. You may be thinking that there is endless time before you have to start preparing for the next academic year. However, you’d be surprised to know that this is the season when families start showing up at our doors to discuss their children’s enrollment for the upcoming year.
The world is a broken and complicated place, and you don’t have to look very far to see examples of schools that don’t meet the ideal most parents wish for their kids’ education. Private school is a choice many families make so that they can help their children advance academically and enjoy the youthful innocence of their school years. We’re thankful to be just the place that many families are looking for.
Though we’d love to open our doors to any family who wants to come, there are limitations to the number of students we can accommodate on our campus. And because we’ve created such a warm and vibrant community, it’s not always easy for families to find an empty seat in our classes. If you’re thinking about St. Barnabas as a private school option for your family next year, there are a few really compelling reasons why you should enroll early.
Enroll Early For Peace of Mind
First and foremost, if you want to secure a seat in our roster for your students, enrolling early ensures your kids get a seat. Don’t spend the rest of this year or a single moment of your summer worrying about where your kids will attend school next year. Enroll early so you can have peace of mind about your child’s academic future.
Get Grandfathered in For Coming Years
Another great thing about getting in early at St. Barnabas is that once you’re in, you’re in. Our families are grandfathered in from year to year, so once you get in, you have a spot with your name on it saved for the following year. Start your child in our private school as a kindergartener, and you have a spot secured through eighth grade.
The same grandfathering goes for all the rest of the children in your family. If you have one child with us, we’ll automatically make room for their siblings to attend when they’re the right age. You’ll never have to worry about carting students around town to multiple schools. Once you’re in our community, you’re in for good.
Middle school is an especially desirable age for parents to enroll their children in private schools. Our older classes fill quickly with families who are looking for an alternative educational option. Our waiting lists are full of excited families hoping to join our school family. In a world where middle school can feel like a war zone, parents flock to St. Barnabas because it’s a safe place where kids can focus on their education.
We are so excited to see what the next year has in store. We are thrilled to be a place where parents feel confident bringing their children each day to learn and grow. We want you and your family to find your place at St. Barnabas, and nothing would make us happier than to open our doors to everyone who’s interested. But since we can’t, we urge you to move quickly. Don’t hesitate to enroll today. Contact our office today to learn more about how you can sign your children up for the 2023-2024 academic year.
