Transitions & Transformations

A Place to Belong

Transitioning in and out of any school community can be difficult for not only the student, but also the family, and to some extent, even the students currently enrolled!

At ISPS, we try our best to help students and families at both ends of the transition - whether transitioning into our school community as a new student or when transitioning out as a graduate or a student moving on to another school somewhere else.

Most important is effective collaboration between the family and the school, and on a more formal level, some forms and paperwork are needed at varying stages of both the admissions and withdrawal phases. Completing and submitting the necessary forms in a timely manner is important to help ensure a smooth transition for all involved, for both admissions and withdrawal.

The more we know about a student and their family from the initial inquiry ensures that informed decisions about placement, courses and offerings are confirmed. Most importantly, we can confirm that all necessary paperwork is in place before the first day of class.
