Process of Admissions

Admission

We are so glad you are considering Holy Family Regional School for your child. Becoming part of our community is one of the most meaningful decisions a family can make — and we are honored to walk alongside you every step of the way. Our admissions process is designed to be clear, welcoming, and reflective of our commitment to building a vibrant, faith-filled school community.

How to Apply

Applications for the 2026–2027 school year open on November 13th and are completed online. We encourage families to apply early, as seats fill quickly and application date and time are considered in our admissions process.
To submit a complete application, the following documents and fees are required:

• Birth Certificate
• Baptismal Certificate
• Most Recent Report Card
• Standardized Test Scores
• Recent Photo
• $25 Non-Refundable Application Fee

Additional documents — including Immunization Records and/or an IEP, if applicable — must be submitted prior to your child's grade-level screening.

Application Deadline & Priority

Applications received by February 6, 2026 will receive first priority for available seats, in accordance with our Priority of Acceptance Policy. Applications submitted after this date will be considered for any remaining seats at the school's discretion. We strongly encourage families to apply before the deadline to secure the best opportunity for placement.

The Admissions Process

Once your application is submitted, here is what you can expect:

• All new students participate in a grade-level screening, scheduled by our Enrollment Department.
• Registration and acceptance materials are sent upon successful completion of the screening process.
• A non-refundable registration fee of $250 is due at the time of formal registration. Please note that failure to register by the stated deadline may result in the loss of your child's seat if a waitlist exists for that grade.

Priority of Acceptance

Holy Family Regional School warmly welcomes families from throughout our community. When demand exceeds availability, seats are awarded according to the following priority criteria:

1. Siblings of currently enrolled students

Remaining seats are filled at the school's discretion.
