Frequently Asked Questions

We review each candidate on his own merits, and accept learners who we feel will be most successful in our academic program. Grades and teacher recommendations weigh heavily in acceptance decisions. However, our Admission Committee also considers students who demonstrate: a strong work ethic; an enthusiasm for personal growth; a willingness to live by the school’s mission; and a genuine desire to contribute positively to the St. Edward community. A student’s current school placement, religion, and financial background are not taken into consideration.

St. Edward does not offer busing. Many of our families arrange carpools or take advantage of public transportation. Some also utilize Personal Leasing Co. for private transport.
