All students entering SJNCS for the first time and new to our diocesan school system are accepted on a probationary basis. The probationary period is for 60 school days and is intended to benefit both the student, family, and the school. During the probationary period, if necessary, parents may be asked to attend a parent conference to discuss their student’s progress and placement. St. John Neumann Catholic School strives to provide a Christ-centered learning environment that promotes academic success and personal responsibility.
During the 60-day probationary period, if the school determines the student is unable to perform adequately in this environment, any prepaid tuition will be prorated and refunded. Grades will not be released until all accounts are current. Student fees are non-refundable.
Saint John Neumann Catholic School recruits and admits students of any race, color, and national and ethnic origin to all the rights, privileges, programs and activities generally accorded or made available to students at the school. It does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national or ethnic origin in administration of its educational policies, admissions policies, scholarship and loan programs, and athletic and other school-administered programs. SJNCS welcomes applications from families of all backgrounds.
