Taking Applications January 2025

MCA will begin accepting applications for the 2025-2026 school year in January 2025.  

The admissions procedure will allow the school to accurately identify and admit students from families who have clearly expressed convictions that are similar to the school’s regarding the education of children. The selection and make-up of the school’s student body is second only to staff selection in the impact it has upon the school’s mission.  

A student’s academic achievements will be considered for grade placement in the application process. We are seeking to enroll those students who, because of their own families’ priorities, will most benefit from what MCA offers. MCA admits students of any race, color, and national or ethnic origin and does not discriminate against job applicants or students on the basis of race, color, national or ethnic origin.  

1. Applications for admission for the following school year are available throughout the school year and are due by April 30th.  
2. Upon return of an application and $100.00 (per student) application fee, a written acknowledgment is sent to the family. Family interviews are scheduled beginning in January.  
3. After the interview and after reviewing all other required materials, MCA will make admittance decisions regarding the student(s). Notification of acceptance or denial will be provided to each applicant. Accepted applicants will receive all appropriate information for preparing for school, including financial arrangements.  

1. Parents shall have a clear understanding of the philosophy and purpose MCA.  
2. At least one parent must agree with the MCA Statement of Faith without any reservations. 
3. Parents shall be willing to cooperate with all the written policies of MCA. This is most important in the area of discipline and homework standards.  
4. Parents are expected to take an active role in their child’s education and create a positive relationship between school and family.  

1. If a child has successfully completed the previous school year and his/her school work and behavior compare favorably to the comparable grade at MCA, the child will be placed in the grade for which he/she is applying. However, if there is evidence to show that the child may not be adequately prepared for the next grade level he/she may repeat the previous grade.  
2. The child should understand that his/her parents have delegated authority to MCA. Therefore, the child is subject to the instruction and discipline of the teachers and other staff in their roles as educators.
