Admission Policy:

The Archdiocese Admissions Non-Discrimination Policy can be found on the website of the Catholic Schools Office of the Archdiocese of Washington:  www.adwcatholicschools.org
(Excerpt Policy 3510 Non-Discrimination Policy)
It is the policy of Our Lady of Lourdes School to make every effort to meet the educational, spiritual and social needs of all students who seek a Catholic education at our school. Every effort will be made to welcome applicants to our school while ensuring that all students will receive adequate attention and excellent instruction.
The following priorities will be used to accept students to Our Lady of Lourdes School when there are a limited number of available seats in any classroom:
  1. Members of Our Lady of Lourdes Parish/Christ the King Parish
  2. Siblings of current students​

Application & Registration Procedures:


​

  • New students entering grades 1-8 will be considered for admission based on academic and discipline records, and a personal interview.

  • New students to the Little Group program must be three years old and toilet trained before September 1.
  • Registration for new students is ongoing through October of each school year and as space is available.

Enrollment & re-Enrollment:

  • All applications can be found online at TADS.  Each application includes an application fee. ​
  • Once students are notified of acceptance, parents complete the enrollment process to secure a seat for the coming school year.
  • Current students re-enroll in late January of the current school year.

Withdrawal or Transfer

  • Parents of registered students who withdraw from school at any time after a semester has begun are responsible for payment of that semester’s full tuition obligation.  Official school records are not released until parents (or person(s) responsible for tuition payment) have satisfied all financial obligations to the school. If tuition accounts are referred for collection due to lack of payment, parents are responsible for court costs.
  • Exceptions are made for families who are relocated due to military service when documentation is provided.
  • Transcripts will be provided to two schools free of charge (if all accounts are in good standing).
