ADMISSIONS POLICY

For newly enrolled children entering Kindergarten through Grade 8, a readiness test will be administered as part of the placement process. This test will help us determine the best placement for the child and whether there are considerations that would interfere with the success of that child at Peace.

All children enrolling in Peace Lutheran School must be properly immunized as required by State law. Individuals entering Kindergarten must be five years old by August 31 ^st for fall placement.

Emphasis is placed on Christian growth at Peace Lutheran School. The means through which a child grows are daily devotions, prayer, Bible class, and a weekly chapel service. As the Word of God is applied, minds and hearts begin to view the world form a new perspective. Chapel is held on Wednesday at 8:30-9:00 AM. Parents and friends are cordially invited to attend and worship with us. A chapel offering is collected each week for special mission projects chosen by the student council.

Discipline will at all times be guided by God's Word and administered in Christian love. In order to maintain the greatest academic and social growth for students, a system of positive, assertive discipline will be in force at all times. We want to teach children appropriate behavior so that they can be responsible Christians and public citizens.

In order to meet these goals students will participate in a behavior management program called "DAILY DISCIPLES."

This program is designed to foster positive, Christ-like behavior in dealing with each other, teachers, staff, and other adults with whom the students come into contact. Emphasis will be placed on positive behaviors and good decision-making skills.

Students who consistently demonstrate appropriate behavior will be eligible for our "SELF MANAGER" program.

This program seeks to recognize those students who act in a positive manner.

A more detailed description of this program can be found in the parent handbook.
