Dear Prospective Parents,
Welcome to Lynnhaven Academy. I understand that searching for the right learning environment for your child can be challenging. I encourage you to get to know our community by participating in one of our many admissions events. As you navigate and explore the various private schools in Richmond, I encourage you keep these two things in perspective. First, does the school align with your family core values? Second, will they meet your child where they are, and stay with them along their school journey? Our admissions events are designed to help you answer those two questions. Lynnhaven is place where students are allowed to achieve personal success. I am committed to our promise to prepare students for life beyond graduation. I am here to answer any questions you may have about the school.
Sincerely,
Casey Hitchcock
Head of School

Lynnhaven Admissions ProcessInquire
Please contact the main office to arrange your visit or attend one of the open houses, school tours, or for one of our Lynx for a Day programs. It's a great way to meet our teachers, students, and administration. Shadow After you've inquired, toured the school, and or participated in an open house, the next step is to shadow for an entire day. Academic assessments, teacher observations, and an interview with our Head of School will occur during the day. This is an important part of the admissions process for both inquiring families and the student. Lynnhaven does not require outside testing, however, if we feel more information would be useful to the process, additional testing may be requested. Apply Parents who wish to apply to Lynnhaven MUST submit an online application for their child, along with a non-refundable $50 application fee. Click this link to Apply! Please view the application materials below:
No decision will be made until ALL application materials are received and processed with the admissions office. Decision Admissions decisions will be communicated via email within one to two weeks after receiving a completed application. We admit and enroll students on a rolling basis, throughout the school year as space permits. Enrollment Parents of accepted students will receive an enrollment contract along with the decision letter from the Director of Student Accounts via email. We use electronic enrollment and tuition contracts. Signed contracts and enrollment deposit should be completed to reserve the student’s place for the coming year. Student Orientation Newly enrolled Lynnhaven students go through orientation before the start of the school year, typically 2 weeks before the first day of classes. If you are mid year transfer student, then families will go through an abbreviated version of orientation. In either case, it's a designated time to meet faculty, staff, other new students and families. The leadership team will review the school policies, procedures, and school calendar. First Day of School! This is the last step in the admissions process. Lynnhaven typically returns after labor day in September. |
