Student Enrollment
Please follow the step by step guide below.
This process is applicable to the West 5th Campus and the Unity Road campus.
On the form, indicate which campus (or campuses) you are registering for.
Parental Membership Application
Parents need to become members of the Calvin Christian School Society in order to enroll their children. The CCS Society is a vital part of the school. Membership in the Society is open to friends and supporters of the cause of Christian education who are in agreement with the basis, purpose and principle guidelines of the Society. The Status and Rights of Membership document (171) provides you with more information about membership. Parents become members in order to enrol their child(ren) in the school.
After your membership application has been received, a member of our Membership Committee will arrange a meeting. In some situations, a meeting can be arranged with the Principal. A recommendation concerning your membership application will go to the Board of Directors. We will also need a completed Pastor's Reference (231.3) form as part of that package.
Student Admissions Application
A completed Student Admission Application (#512) will need to be completed. There is a registration fee included and this fee is required only once. For our Kindergarten parents: You may also wish to purchase additional days for your child through our "Come - Along K" program. You can select French immersion on the "off Fridays" and/or you can select "extended SK/JK" on the other off days. More information can be found by checking out our "Come - Along K" registration form (#675) and our document on the French Immersion Program (#690.1).
Other Required Forms and Fees
