Admissions and Registration Policy at Hillander

The policy of Hillander is not to discriminate on the basis of race, color, national origin, religion, or physical handicaps.

Students who attend Hillander for the entire year will be eligible for pre-registration for the following year. After pre-registration is closed, any remaining vacancies will be filled with students that have brothers or sisters enrolled at Hillander and who are on the current waiting list. Any remaining vacancies will be filled in the order in which they were registered on the waiting list. Please see waiting list details on the admissions waiting list page.

Registration forms are sent to current students in early January.  Registration forms for new students may be picked up at the Hillander School office.  Registration forms must be completed and returned along with the registration fee no later than the specified date on the contract. Vacant positions will be filled from the waiting list after the current students’ signed contracts are returned.

PLEASE BE AWARE THAT EVERY AUGUST THE WAITING LIST IS NOT ROLLED OVER. IF YOUR CHILD IS ON A WAITING LIST AND DOES NOT GET INTO A CLASS, PLEASE CONTACT THE OFFICE AND SIGN UP AGAIN FOR THE FOLLOWING YEAR IN PERSON.

New students will not be admitted in grades first through sixth after the first day of school unless they have been enrolled in a school that teaches the Carden curriculum or a school of equal standing.

New students in grades first through sixth must supply the school with current school records, immunization record, achievement test scores, and a birth certificate. New students and their parents must also interview with the principal. If the student is accepted into Hillander, a registration form is completed and a registration fee paid. New students must arrange for and complete tutoring in the Carden method.
