Application Process
Dear Future Jeanite and Parent/Guardian,
The Admissions Committee of St. Jean Baptiste High School understands that the last academic year and the prior to it provided circumstances that were (and still are) unusual for families, teachers and more importantly, students. In an effort to maintain a consistent format of assessment, the Admissions Committee at St. Jean Baptiste High School asked that the 8th grade applicant seeking admission next Fall take the TACHS exam in November of 2022. However, if you were unable to take the TACHS exam, you may apply today! Class of 2027 Admissions Application HERE. The Admissions Committee will issue acceptances after January 26th, 2023. Please e-mail: [email protected] if you have questions prior to that date.
Speaking of applications, below this message are many opportunities to apply for scholarships. Please read each descriptor carefully and click on the links to download more information.
Lastly, over the last several years, St. Jean Baptiste High School has experienced high demand during our enrollment and registration periods. Even now, we are at capacity once again with a wait list for incoming 9th graders!
We are truly blessed to have such dedicated and credentialed faculty members and administrators, as well as engaged students and loyal parents, each of whom invests and believes in the future of talented young women. We look forward to growing our Jeanite community with you!
Sincerely yours,
Ms. Lugo
