The THA Admissions Process

Inquire

The first step in the THA process is completing the inquiry form. This helps us better understand your family and your child’s educational needs. Once submitted, a member of the Admissions Team will reach out to schedule a parent visit and welcome.

Schedule a School Visit

The school visit is a great way to see our campus, meet our team, and get a glimpse of what the school day would look like for your child. During the visit you’ll be able to ask questions and complete the application. The school visit is parent/guardian only.

Apply

When you’re ready to apply, our Admissions Team will walk you through the process of completing the application and submitting the necessary forms. Have a question? Reach out here.

Student Shadow Day

Your child will be invited to campus for a shadow day once the application is submitted. During the visit, they will be introduced to an age-appropriate classroom and will spend time getting to know our community. This is a wonderful way for our school to get to know your child and allow them to see THA “in action”. 

Children entering Kindergarten or 1st Grade for the next academic year will shadow for a half school day. Children entering 2nd through 8th Grade will shadow for a full school day.

Admissions Decision

Admissions to THA are awarded on a rolling basis, with the largest round of admissions decisions being made in the spring semester.

Families will be notified of acceptance via electronic letter. Following the acceptance letter, a time-sensitive, digital contract will be issued for parent signatures.

At THA, we are committed to making private education accessible to all families. For the 2023-24 school year, we distributed over $870,000 in financial aid to 86% of the student body.
