Admissions Requirements

At St. Paul Lutheran High School, we’re committed to helping every student discover their God-given gifts and reach their full potential. Our admissions process is designed to ensure each student and family is ready to partner with us in pursuing academic excellence and spiritual growth.

â–· First-Time Freshmen Admissions
Admission is open to students who have successfully completed grade eight. During a consultation with our administrator or counselor, the student’s previous academic performance and personal history will be reviewed to determine eligibility for enrollment. A primary consideration for enrollment is a genuine desire for a Christ-centered educational environment.


â–· Transfer Student Admissions
Students transferring from other high schools are typically accepted only at the beginning of each semester. Exceptions may be made for families moving into the area if we can design a program that meets the student’s needs, especially with respect to continuity of coursework.


Transfer students will be considered for admission based on:

  • Academic records

  • Disciplinary history

  • Attendance records

  • Recommendations from former teachers and administrators

​

A key factor in transfer admission decisions is the family’s commitment to Christian education. Mid-term transfers require special attention to ensure a smooth process and successful transition.
