Show THE HIGH SCHOOL ADMISSION The Academy is open to students of both sexes and of all nationalities and religious denominations. Candidates for admission must be of good moral character, must furnish evidence of honorable dismissal from the school they last attended, and must signify their intention to keep themselves in harmony with the spirit and teachings of the institution. The use of profanity, tobacco or intoxicating liquor, the attendance at a pool room or public dance hall, or indulgence in any similar form of amusement is not in keeping with the spirit of the institution and may bar a student from entrance or cause his dismissal. Students are admitted at any time, but it is to their advantage to enter at the beginning of the academic year. The entrance requirements may be satisfied by the presentation of certificates or by examination as follows: (a) Admission on CertificateStudents presenting a certificate of graduation from the Eighth grade of the public schools will be admitted without examination to any of the academic courses. (b) Admission by ExaminationStudents not presenting a certificate of graduation from the Eighth grade may, by passing successfully the entrance examinations, be admitted to the academic courses. Students beyond the public school age, who are deficient in some of the studies of the grades, will be given special consideration. |
