St. Cecilia School does not discriminate on the basis of race, socioeconomic status, creed, sex, or national origin in accepting applications for student admissions.  In admitting students, because of limited space, the school has set priorities.  Certain qualifications must also be met.

Program will be administered by the Principal. (All priorities are subject to prior records of students seeking entrance).
Students transferring from other Catholic schools have priority over students transferring from public or private schools.
Applicants in the same priority level will be accepted according to tenure and participation in Sacred Heart Church.  All completed applications will be stamped and dated at the time of receipt.
In the event that there are fewer openings than applicants (in the same priority level) and there is a similarity in data regarding tenure and participation in Sacred Heart Church Parish, these applicants will be forwarded to a Sacred Heart Church committee, at which time it will be determined which applicants will be accepted for admittance.
The previous year’s applicants, based upon order of receipt of application for the current year, are placed in appropriate order of category identified, before first-time applicants.
Should a conflict in any category arise, the principal will confer with the pastor for resolutions.
