Admissions Information

All children are welcome at Good Shepherd Catholic School. Although we are a Catholic school, we welcome all students and families.  Students who attend Catholic schools share similar values and, therefore, treat each other with dignity, respect, and kindness.  Our school encourages students to accept the challenges of being a better person in tomorrow's world.

 

Parents who register their children at Good Shepherd Catholic School must believe in our philosophy of education, accept the values that are taught, and cooperate with the school in its policies and discipline standards. 

 

Students entering kindergarten must be 5 years old by August 31st of the new school year. 

 

All students are required to have their official birth certificate on file (a copy may be made by the school secretary after viewing the original).

 

For children who are Catholic but who were not baptized at Good Shepherd Parish, a baptismal certificate is also required at registration. 

 

Proof of immunization and a Health Inventory, as required by the State of Maryland, must be provided at the time of registration. 

 

All new students are accepted provisionally. If either the school or the family feels that a child is not adjusting to the curriculum, guidelines, or behavior norms, a conference will be held with parents, teacher, and principal to discuss alternatives.
