Step 2
Submit Documentation
Email the Head of School, arichard@thenovusacademy.org, copies of any recent student testing (such as an IEP, 504 plan, FIE, neuropsychological, psycho-educational report, etc.). The Head of School will review the information and contact you.
Step 3
Tour of Campus/Meeting with Head of School
Parents come on a tour of Novus and learn more about the school program. Parents will meet the Head of School and other staff to answer questions and learn more about the student.
Step 4
2-Day Visit Scheduled or Next Steps Discussed
If the child might benefit from Novus, an invitation to apply and schedule a 2-Day Visit will be made. Otherwise, referrals are made if the child does not seem to be an appropriate fit. The application and 2-Day Visit fee is $175.
Step 5
2-Day Visit and Offer of Enrollment
The student spends two days in the Novus classrooms and takes Renaissance STAR testing to determine approximate grade levels and functioning. Teachers fill out observation data from visit. Head of School will provide parents with observations from the visit and decide whether to make an offer of enrollment or provide other referrals.
