Advent Admission Policy

Advent Parish Day School enrolls children who are 18 months by September 1st of the school year. For the 2025-2026 school year, children must have a birth date prior to March 1st, 2024. Students who do not meet this cut off will not be eligible for enrollment until the following school year.
 
Advent Parish Day School follows a “wait-list” for enrollment. Interested parties should contact the school office with the following information: Child’s name, date of birth, email, phone number, and program of interest. Spots are offered to school families and siblings in late January. After this date, school administration will fill other available spots from the waitlist, in order of date added, until the spots in each program are full. A $250 registration fee is required to hold the classroom assignment for the student. Advent places children in classrooms first based on the child’s age and then based on classroom make-up. Individual requests for teachers can not be granted.
 
Advent Parish Day School requires all children provide Health Form 3046, Immunization Form 680 and a copy of birth certificate to begin the school year. Advent does not accept religious exemption from vaccination, in accordance with the Episcopal Diocese of Florida and the Episcopal Schools Board of Regents. All children attending school must either provide proof of immunization under a physician’s care, or a medical exemption form from their child’s physician.
 
Advent Parish Day School follows a non-discrimination policy for admissions and employment policies. It is the policy of Advent Parish Day School not to discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, age, sex, disability, sexual orientation, or national and ethnic origin in its educational programs.
