Frequently asked questions about our admissions process
FAQS
How long does Admissions take?
The Admissions team aims to provide timely responses when referrals are received, with a goal of outreach to the family within a week of receipt of the referral. This timeline is dependent upon the volume of referrals received, so can take more time in some cases. From the time a referral is received to the time a student starts, the process can generally take between 2-4 weeks. This timeline allows for file review, additional information gathering conversations, scheduling of the intake and enrollment paperwork completion. Each case is different and can move more or less quickly based on any number of factors. For more information about the enrollment process click here.
What type of students attend your school?
Students attending Inspire Academy have a variety of educational and clinical/medical diagnosis including but not limited to: Autism, Specific Learning Disabilities, Emotional Disturbance, Anxiety Disorder, ADHD, Borderline to Mild Intellectual Disability. The needs of each student are considered so we can be confident in our ability to support them. Although some of our students have a Speech & Language Impairment, all students are utilizing verbal language to access their education and interact with their peers/staff. Students with more significant communication needs are not appropriately served by Inspire Academy.
How often do parents/guardians have contact with staff?
Parent/guardian communication is important to our team. We value the collaboration we have with our families and know it is important for family members to be included in their child’s education. The student’s teacher will be the main point of contact for our parents/guardians. Parents are always welcome to reach out to their child’s teacher at any time via email but durng school hours please reach out to the front desk for assistance. The teacher will respond to emails as soon as possible.
