1. Enrolment in Toronto District Christian High School is open to children of Christian parents and/or guardians, subject to procedures and conditions specified herein.

2. All other applications of enrolment shall be subject to approval by the Board of Trustees.

B. Procedures of Enrolment

1. All the application and statement forms shall be filled out and submitted by the parents or guardians, together with the appropriate fees and any other information requested in the forms.

An administration fee of $400 is payable by families seeking enrolment of a child who is not currently attending an approved independent Christian school. Half of this fee is refundable if TDChristian High School determines that they will be unable to enrol the student.

Two deposit cheques of $500 each, one dated March 1 and the second one dated June 1, shall accompany all applications received before March 1. For applications received after March 1 but before June 1, the first cheque shall be dated the date of the application and the second cheque shall be dated June 1. Applications received after June 1 shall be accompanied by a single cheque in the amount of $1000, to be dated the date of application. These cheques are cashable and non-refundable upon initial admission approval by TDChristian High School. If TDChristian High School receives, at a later date but before the start of the school session, information regarding the application which necessitates a meeting with the family to clarify expectations, the deposit will be refunded in the event that (a) TDChristian High School decides to terminate enrolment or (b) the family indicates in writing, within one week of the meeting, their intent to withdraw their application.

2. An interview with the Admissions Council* will be arranged for all families enrolling a child for the first time. Except in cases of single-parent or single-guardian families, both parents or guardians and the child(ren) seeking enrolment should be present at any interview. Siblings in Grade 6 or 7 are encouraged to attend as well.

*Admissions Council consists of two staff including either the Principal or the Vice-Principal of Admissions/Students or both.

3. Families applying to enrol a child shall receive written notification of the child’s admission status by March 15 for all applications received by February 1. Whether or not written notification is received by the family, the cashing of the deposit cheque by TDChristian High School represents conditional acceptance of the application.

C. Conditions of Enrolment

1. Enrolment for all students is subject to the determination and acceptance of their course placement as directed by the Principal.

2. All parents/guardians agree to have their children participate in and attend all compulsory courses and devotional activities (as outlined by the Board of Trustees).

3. All parents/guardians and students must sign the statements of support and commitment found on the back of the Student Admission Application form.

4. Where an interview is requested by TDChristian High School, both parents/guardians and the student for whom enrolment is sought are expected to attend.

5. Enrolment is conditional upon the successful completion of the student’s current program of studies as well as behaviour that is in agreement with the signed statement of commitment. TDChristian High School has the right to obtain references and maintain conditional acceptance throughout a student’s period of enrolment.

6. The Board of Trustees reserves the right to refuse admission or re-enrolment of a student without giving cause.

7. Admission to TDChristian High School does not mean a spot on the transportation system is guaranteed. Students will be given a seat on the bus as per the priority list. The tuition rate is not affected by whether or not a seat is available.

D. Priority of Enrolment

Students are considered for enrolment in the following order of priority:

1. Children of parents who currently have children in TDChristian High School and sign up before February 1.

2. Children currently enrolled in approved Christian independent schools who sign up before February 1, ranked by number of years in Christian school. Families with a previous association with a Christian school would be ranked as per number of years involved.

3. Christian homeschoolers, as per date of application.

4. Other Christian families/students, as per date of application.

5. Visa students from Christian families, as per date of application.

6. Applications where there is no clear Christian commitment. These students are admitted only by a decision of the Board of Trustees.
