Student Enrollment

Step-by-Step Enrollment Guide

After communicating with the Principal:

STEP 1

Complete the Membership Application Form (171.1). The Status and Rights of Membership document (171) can be found below or in the enrolment packet. 

Parents need to become members of the Calvin Christian School Society in order to enrol 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. 

STEP 2

Have your Pastor complete the Pastor Reference Form (231.3).

STEP 3:

Complete the Student Admission Application Form (512), indicating which campus you are applying for. There is a registration fee included and this fee is required only once.
