Assessment + Shadow

Assessments are administered at CKS for prospective students in all grades:

Early Childhood 4 and Kindergarten are scheduled assessments in February. The EC4/Kindergarten teaching teams administer the Admissions assessment to prospective students in a friendly classroom setting to determine readiness for our program.
- The EC4 assessment incorporates group and individual activities to evaluate listening skills, academic level, social skills and fine and gross motor skills.
- The Kindergarten assessment incorporates group and individual activities to evaluate reading readiness/levels, listening skills, mathematical understanding and social/behavioral skills.
Grades 1-8 shadow and assessment days are scheduled individually by the Admissions Office upon completion of the application. The prospective 1st-8th grade student will visit CKS for an entire school day, spend some time in the classroom with a host student, and take a Math and English Language Arts Assessment.

Christ the King Catholic School does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national and ethnic origin in administration of its educational policies, admissions policies, scholarship and loan programs, and athletic and other school-administered programs.
