For success, the University Model requires all involved to be prepared, trained, and ready for the coming academic year. 

Experience has taught us that when families come late to the process, they are not ultimately served well and the students arrive at a disadvantage. The early summer registration cut-off helps to protect families by ensuring they receive essential support before starting later at the academy. We look forward to providing the same high level of care for your family at the proper time.

 In over twenty years of operation, we have learned three important lessons about supporting a parent-involved University Model School.

1.    Lake Pointe operates with a high level of parent involvement and student engagement. The June application deadline allows families to comfortably complete the admissions process, to attend to various summer training sessions, and to finish the summer reading and math preparation.  

2.    Unless the staff dedicates the entire month of July to preparation, our enrolled families will not be fully served, and it is to those families that we owe our staff's best efforts and results.

3.    We are practicing being content. The Lord has brought us a quality crop of families this year, and we both rejoice and rest in that opportunity.

Our admissions representatives are willing to collect and to consider late enrollment exceptions, but exceptions are for exceptional cases. Our academy operates upon three pillars. The more a family has experience in each of these three pillars, the more likely an exception might be made.

1. Passionate yearning for discipleship through academic and related studies.

2. University Model experience, with its alternating day schedule and at-home, strong family support.

3. Experience with classical content and approaches.

Additionally, the family that is familiar with the academy's programs, minimizing the needs for training, the better the chance for exception.
 

If you feel your family warrants an exception review, please contact admissions@LakePointeAcademy.org, to help us to understand your story.
