3. Student Shadow Day
Once your application has been submitted, you will be contacted to schedule a Kindergarten Readiness Check OR *Shadow Day (Grades 1-12) for your student.
  • The Kindergarten Readiness Check is a 30 minute evaluation. Our Kindergarten teacher will meet with your student to read a book, play games, do a craft and other activities to determine your child's readiness.
  • The Shadow Day allows your student to meet their teacher(s) and potential classmates and experience a typical DaySpring school day.
*Students applying in summer months may not have a Shadow Day opportunity.
4. Retrieve Records
  • For students entering 1st-12th Grades, fill out these forms for Records Release and Teacher Recommendation Request.
  • It is recommended that you fill this out before your student attends the scheduled Shadow Day. Doing so allows us to get back to you sooner with an admittance decision.
5. Acceptance & Enrollment
Around 1 week after the Shadow Day, as long as records are received, you will receive a letter with our admittance decision. Once you are admitted into the Academy, you will need to complete the enrollment process.
