St. Vincent's reserves the right to maintain an Order of Priority for Admission of Students. The Order of Priority will be as follows:
1. Currently enrolled students who are pre-registered
2. Siblings of children currently enrolled in St. Vincent de Paul School, in order of preference outlined in numbers three, four, and five below
3. Children of registered and contributing members of St. Vincent de Paul Parish who wish to keep their children in St. Vincent de Paul School
4. Children of registered and contributing members of other Roman Catholic Parishes
5. Children of other families: Catholics who are not registered and contributing members of their parish will receive no particular consideration.
6. Non-Catholic students
St. Vincent de Paul School is not equipped to handle serious physical or learning disabilities. If, with reasonable accommodation on the part of the school, the person with special needs could be accommodated, the student will be accepted according to Order of Priority for Admission.
The Admissions Policy of St. Vincent de Paul School adheres to the laws of the State of Colorado and the Policies and Procedures of the Archdiocese of Denver. These agencies determine the age of admittance, health, academic and other pertinent records required for admittance. New students (Kindergarten through Grade 8) entering St. Vincent de Paul School are expected to participate in a screening procedure as part of the application process. Those applying to St. Vincent de Paul School must return the appropriate application forms and the stipulated application fee to the school. Application to St. Vincent de Paul School does not guarantee acceptance into the school. Should a class be full, those applying for admission may choose to be placed on a waiting list, in the event that an opening becomes available.
Transfer Students
The following information is needed for transfer students to be eligible for acceptance to St. Vincent de Paul School: The family must provide evidence that the student is in good standing at the school in which he or she is enrolled, showing satisfactory achievement in conduct, effort, and the academic subjects. It is the responsibility of the Principal and/or the Assistant Principal to make decisions concerning the acceptance of transfer applicants.
Students transferring from another school in grades K-8 are accepted on probation for the first quarter. If grades are passing, conduct and effort are good, and the student is making progress, the probation is removed at the end of the first quarter.
