ADMISSIONS

Outside of school events, like open houses, you can schedule a tour of the school (visit website). If arranged on a regular school day, a tour may provide a realistic view of school life.

• Why it matters

  A school visit offers a firsthand look at the environment, culture, and daily life of the school. It provides an opportunity to ask questions, observe interactions, and verify your expectations directly. It's a vital part of an informed choice.

  Description:

  Oak Bridge Academy Application Process

  The application process helps us gain important information about prospective students and their families. This process will help all parties determine if Oak Bridge Academy is the appropriate placement for their child and family.

  As Oak Bridge Academy has limited space, we encourage you to apply early to avoid being placed on a wait list.

  Step 1: The Application Form

  This form is to be completed by the parent(s)/guardian(s) of the applicant along with a non-refundable $250.00 application fee. This fee is non-refundable due to the amount of staff time required to review and assess the application. Please be sure to also send along copies of the student’s:

  • current IEP

  • last two report cards

  • any behavioural or psychological reports

  Once the application form, $250.00 fee and student information have all been submitted, you will be contacted to schedule an on-site interview.

  Step 2: The Interview and Trial Day

  The interview will take place at the school with the parents while your child spends a full day in a fully integrated classroom setting. This step will allow Oak Bridge staff to determine the child’s strengths, goals and support level before recommending potential placement.

  Step 3: Admission Decision

  Admission decisions are made after a family interview and assessment of the applicant.

  If Oak Bridge Academy feels the applicant would benefit from the behaviour curriculum, admissions will be approved and the application will be forwarded a registration package.

  Step 4: School Registration

  Your registration will not be considered complete until Oak Bridge Academy receives the following:

  Registration Forms

  • $1000 Registration Fee (will be deducted from your total tuition cost)

  • A copy of the applicant’s birth certificate or passport

  • A copy of the applicant’s most recent immunization records

  ​

• Why it matters

  Understanding admission requirements is crucial as you assess your fit with a school and the likelihood of acceptance. These requirements often reflect the school's educational priorities.
