STUDENT REGISTRATION

For over sixty years, St. Charles has been committed to the spiritual, intellectual, emotional and social development of all of our students.  We value the partnerships with the parents and families of our students in helping each student achieve his/her highest potential. You will find our dedicated staff genuinely cares about each student.

Our fully accredited program follows both state and diocesan standards from kindergarten through eighth grade.  Our students participate in standardized testing and consistently score well above the national average.  Using innovative learning techniques our students are continuously challenged to do their best.

Any family requesting a tuition grant or outside scholarship (regardless of the type) must complete an application.  All parishioners have grants available to them.  We continue to strive to keep tuition competitive with other surrounding schools.

New students: Contact the school office at 419-222-2536 to obtain a registration form.  If you have any questions about the process, please contact Mrs. Dieringer at the number above or email at dieringerk@sccslima.com.  We would love to have your family be a part of our community.

Registration

Registration is accepted throughout the summer, up until the first day of school. When registering a child for the first time, the person responsible for the child must present the school with a copy of the child’s birth certificate, a copy of records from the previous school of attendance, and court custody documentation if applicable. To enroll your child(ren) at St. Charles Catholic School, you must complete registration forms and pay registration fees.  Tuition is then due and payable according to the tuition option chosen.

Transfers

Families who wish to transfer students to St. Charles School from an out of local district school, during the current academic year, must have an entrance conference with the principal. Families are given a tour of the school and acquainted with the philosophy and goals at that time. The prospective new student(s) is/are encouraged to spend a day with us before formal entrance.

It is the responsibility of the parent to obtain the previous school’s records by signing a release of records at either St. Charles School or the previous school. Most schools will mail the records to St. Charles School once the record release is signed and received.

Students who transfer to St. Charles School from another school shall be accepted after these requirements are met:
1. A conference with the parents, student, and principal.
2. A recommendation for admission is received from the previous school or homeroom teacher.
3. Parents have presented a copy of the child’s most recent report card, a copy of any current IEP/504 Plan if applicable, and most recent standardized test scores.
4. Final acceptance is determined by the Principal-Minister.

During the summer, it may be difficult to obtain all of the above information when schools are closed. A telephone call to the principal and teacher (s) of the previous school may give enough information to determine admission until the cumulative folder is received. The final decision of admission in all cases is determined by the Principal-Minister.
