Applying to Sussex Christian School

The best way to see if SCS is right for your family is to visit! On your visit, you’ll meet our Administrator and see our classrooms in action. You’ll hear about our academic programs, athletics, and the arts, and if the weather is nice, you’ll see our outdoor classrooms. Schedule your tour online, or by emailing admissions@sussexchristianschool.org.
After much thought and prayer, you have decided that Christian education is the best path for your child to take to live fully for God. Now, it’s time to get your application started.
To complete your application, please visit our online admissions portal. You will be prompted to create an account, and can then submit an application for each child.
You will have the option to save your progress and log in at any time to complete the application.
The online application includes several sections that help us get to know your child and your family. After the online forms are completed, we also require a Pastor’s Recommendation (one per family) and a School Recommendation (for children in grades 1-8). These will be sent to your Pastor and School automatically when you complete the application.
We also request that you provide a copy of report cards and a copy of the child’s birth certificate. There will be an option to upload these documents with your application, or, you may send them directly to our office.
If you have any questions in the admissions process, please contact us by emailing admissions@sussexchristianschool.org or calling 973-875-5595 ext. 232.
We look forward to getting to know your family!
After your application is fully submitted, the Admissions Committee, comprised of one School Board member and one Admissions Committee member, will conduct this interview at our school. We’ll use this time to get to know your family and allow you to ask and answer questions about SCS to ensure that it’s a good fit.
It is recommended that both parents or guardians attend along with any child who is entering 5th through 8th grade. Students entering grades Preschool through 4th grade are not required to attend but may do so if the parents wish them to do so.
Your full application will be reviewed a final time after the family interview, and you will receive an admissions decision. Accepted families will then complete a series of paperwork to confirm enrollment and register new students. During this time, you will also set up your tuition account.
