Re-Registration of Current Students
Annually each spring, families with students currently attending St. Mark Catholic School will have the opportunity to submit the application for re-registration. The following criteria will be considered in the decision to accept or not to accept this application.
- At the time of application, all tuition, fees (including but not exclusive of Library, prefecting, textbooks) must be current
- Students must have displayed successful academic growth and appropriate behavior. Retention, summer school / tutorial programs, or specific behavior modification procedures may be stipulated and re-registration will be contingent upon this agreement.
- The primary purpose of the Catholic School is to work in conjunction with the parents to foster the teachings, doctrine, and practice of Catholicism. Parents must agree to accept the commitment and responsibility of actively providing these teachings and practices for their child outside the school. Non-Catholic students are required to actively participate in religion classes, religious celebrations and liturgies while attending St. Mark Catholic School.
- A major factor of success for this school is the support and loyalty of the students and parents. All students and their parents must jointly agree to abide by the following: school board policy, administrative regulations, school rules and procedures, classroom rules and procedures.
Reminder: Registration fees must be paid in full (see Tuition and Fees).
After applications for re-registration are received, a letter confirming official registration for the following year will be sent. This confirmation letter must be signed and returned to the school office. Should there be any impediment hindering the registration, parents will be notified.
