To enroll your child is a simple process. Please know that
because we maintain small classes (at 16 students maximum), you are wise
to apply as early as possible. The application does not require a
fee until you have visited Lee Academy and placement is arranged.
First, fill out the application and background information form
available either by downloading them or contacting the school.
Please ensure that you provide all the information requested.
Send the forms by fax (519-647-9772) or mail to: Lee Academy,
1978 2nd Conc. W., RR#1 Lynden, ON, L0R 1T0.
You may call us to arrange a tour at anytime. If we receive
your forms, we will contact you to arrange a visit to the school.
We encourage you to spend some time in a class with the teacher and
students to experience our programmes in action.
Your child will need to be assessed before a placement can be
confirmed. For students entering Junior Kindergarten, we usually
need only a morning together. We set a morning in May for all our
potential JK students to visit their "new" school.
For students entering older grades, we invite them to spend at least
an entire instructional day with an existing class and our
teachers. During the visit, your child will spend some one on one
time with a homeroom teacher so that we can assess his/her skill level
in the core subjects of mathematics, writing and reading. If we
are unable to accurately evaluate your child over the course of one
visit, we may invite him/her back for another day.
After the assessment is complete, the director and teachers decide
whether or not your child would thrive in our programme. We
contact you to complete the registration process. At that point,
we ask for immunization information, birth certificate information and a
deposit. (Please refer to our Fee Information.)
All our registered students are invited to "Stepping Up
Day" in May, when all students spend a morning visiting their
September grades. New Junior Kindergartens come for the morning
and all the other students "step up" to the next grade until
the lunch hour that day. It's a wonderful preview of the class for
both the homeroom teacher and the students.
If you have any questions about how to enroll your child at Lee
Academy, please contact our director, Alison Will
