admissions

Ocala Christian Academy admits students of any race, color, nationality and ethnic origin to all the rights, privileges, programs, and activities generally accorded or made available to students at the school.

 

OCA does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national and ethnic origin in the administration of its educational policies, admissions policies, athletics, or other school administered programs.

 

Ocala Christian Academy, as a private institution, reserves the privilege of setting and maintaining its own standards for student conduct, dress, and cleanliness. The school maintains the right to refuse admittance to anyone who fails to meet the entrance requirements and to suspend or expel any student who violates the standards set down in the Standards of Conduct, Home & School Handbook, or other rules of conduct as defined by the Administration.

In order to become eligible to enter Ocala Christian Academy, each prospective new student and his parents/guardians must do the following:

 

1. Read the Home and School Handbook.

2. Submit the completed application form and application fee.

3. Submit 2 completed recommendation forms. (Negative recommendations will result in denied admission.)

4. Submit all the following forms:

      A. Copy of certified Birth Certificate

      B. Florida Immunization Form

      C. Copy of Social Security Card

      I. Acceptance Letter (Step Up students)

5. Schedule entrance assessment and submit assessment fee unless the student has taken the Stanford 10 assessment or other approved assessment within the past year and can provide a copy of the assessment results. (The entrance assessment determines ability for grade placement; students who do not meet the placement standard will be required to repeat the current grade or be denied admission.)

​

All new 6th - 12th grade students begin on probation, and the student and his parents are required to sign and abide by the probation agreement.

 

All new elementary students are admitted conditionally on a nine weeks trial period. If the child fails to make acceptable progress or does not adjust to the program of the school, the parents will be expected to give additional help at home. The school reserves the right to place the child in a lower grade if deemed necessary. Additional probation may be set for not completing homework, failing to meet other academic requirements in a subject, or as a result of disciplinary problems.
