Tree of Life has a predetermined capacity at each grade level, and we value our commitment to maintaining student-to-teacher ratios and small class sizes.
At times, the number of prospective students exceeds the number of seats available in a designated grade level. Our goal is to maintain capacity at each grade level, and our wait pool process helps to achieve this goal. Tree of Life’s wait pool is an unranked group of students who have been accepted into Tree of Life and who are prayerfully waiting for an opportunity to join our school family.
The re-enrollment period for current families ends on February 15th. Wait pool families can typically expect to be notified of grade level openings in February for the upcoming school year.
Seats often continue to become available after February, often up to the beginning of the school year. We will keep families in the wait pool informed as spaces become available. Of course, we always welcome students to reapply during the next admission season if a seat does not become available.
Tree of Life has established the following process for families pursuing enrollment in a grade level that is nearing or currently at enrollment capacity:
- Families must complete the steps outlined in the “How to Apply” section, including testing.
- When a family receives acceptance into a wait pool status, they have three business days to confirm being added to the wait pool for a specific grade level.
- If a seat opens up in a grade level, families will be notified via email and phone. Families will have 48 hours to enroll before the seat is offered to another family in the wait pool.
