desires to attract average and above average ability students, who
are well motivated towards attending school, able to meet high standards
and high expectations both in their academic and social endeavors.
These students should demonstrate that they can adapt well to and
learn in an English as a language of instruction environment. Children
applying for first through twelfth grade are expected to have a
working command of the English language upon admission, in order
to insure that they can fully benefit from the educational program
offered.
Students
whose native language is not English and who are new to an English
as the language of instruction program will spend their school day
in the regular classroom immersed in the educational program. Teachers
will be aware of their needs and these students will receive special
help in their transition stage. Those children, who may need extra
support and tuition in English beyond what the school can offer
within the regular program, will be referred to tutors, which may
be allowed to meet with the child during the school day if scheduling
allows. Parents will be responsible for these tutorial fees to help
their youngsters achieve the readiness required to contribute to
as well as benefit fully from our curriculum and school environment.
All candidates are given careful consideration in the admissions
process and any adverse decisions are made regretfully but with
the best interest of the child and the school in mind. Reasons for
either admissions or non-acceptance of applicants are made upon
de consideration of many factors including the results of psychometric
evaluations, assessment of readiness, school records and recommendations
as well as an assessment of whether the school has the appropriate
educational programs to meet the needs of the youngster. The final
decision on admission of an applicant is based on the collective
experience and judgment of the school administrators.
All applicants are notified in writing of the decision of the committee
on admissions. Decisions may include notifications for: accept,
conditional accept, wait list, reject or incomplete status. Each
applicant’s admission folder and its content is the property
of TASIS Dorado and may not be copied.
