ADMISSIONS PROCESS
 
As a learning community comprised of students, parents, faculty and our parish leadership team, we seek to continue the development of AACA as a premier learning environment for all of our students. To support students in reaching academic excellence, our instructional program uses the arts to create and enhance learning opportunities for students both in daily classroom instruction as well in special arts classes. Based on this philosophy, our goal is to build a diverse community of families who value an active faith life and demonstrate this through participation in parish life. We also seek parents with a strong commitment to the mission and culture of AACA.

All students who complete the admissions process are considered for enrollment. However, due to the number of applications we receive, we cannot guarantee enrollment to all who apply.

Children applying to AACA for pre-kindergarten through kindergarten must meet the September 1st birthday cut-off to be considered for placement in those programs. Exceptions will not be made, even if the child has previously been enrolled in a school that has made an exception to the deadline.
