Admissions


 
Admissions Policy

 

Forest Lake Academy accepts students of any race, creed, and/or ethnic background to all the rights, privileges, and activities generally accorded or made available to students at the school. It does not discriminate on the basis of race, creed, and/or ethnic background in the administration of educational policies, application for admission, and athletic or extracurricular programs. However, because Forest Lake Academy is owned and operated by the Florida Conference of Seventh-day Adventists, entrance preference may be given to its members should limitation of facilities, class space, or work opportunities make it necessary.

They satisfactorily complete their previous academic program, including:

  • having no more than one F-grade, or two grades below a C from the previous semester;
  • having a composite score in the 30th percentile or higher on the last standardized achievement test;
  • having at least a C-grade for citizenship and attendance from the previous two semesters, if these grades were recorded at the last school.
