All Students who attend Christ the King School are expected to:
- Understand, accept, and support the philosophy and goals of the

Priority of Admission
The priority if an admission is as follows:

the King School.

other parishes.
4. Transfer students from public schools who are parishioners of other
parishes.

probation after his/her acceptance. ”Academic / Behavior “ is defined as

being responsible for assignments/homework, and possessing a desire to
learn. “Behavioral” is defined in the Christ the King School Handbook.

in the case of transfer students before admission. Transfer students are
expected to be in good academic standing and owe no debts to the
previous school.
D. Christ the King School may require an interview of parents and
students to determine special needs. A student may not be accepted if
Christ the King School is unable to meet these special needs.
