Our Admissions Committee strives to bring together a cohesive student body that can grow spiritually, intellectually and physically. Each candidate's academic potential, scholastic motivation, character development, athletic ability and extracurricular interests are taken into consideration. Providence Christian School of Texas admits students of any race, color, national or ethnic origin to all the rights, privileges, programs and activities generally accorded or made available to students at the School. Providence does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national or ethnic origin in administration of its educational policies, admission policies, scholarships, loan programs, athletic programs and other school-administered programs. Providence reserves the right to deny admission to a student if his or her ability, behavior, or emotional development indicates that he or she could not be best served by our school program. Testing for readiness for the student's entrance is required before acceptance. The Admissions Committee seeks to make each admission decision based on what is best for the child and for Providence.
Open House - Providence hosts an annual open house to give interested parents the opportunity to talk with the faculty, administration and Board members as well as Providence parents. We encourage prospective parents to attend an open house before submitting an application. In addition, parents are welcome to observe classes in progress. To schedule an observation time, please call (469) 641-4031. |
