put on the Admissions Office’s mailing list?

email the Admissions Office and give your name, address, phone number,
email address, school and grade level.
How can I be a “Raider
for a Day”?
Call the Admissions Office
and see which days are available. The school usually invites grammar
school students on Mondays and Fridays and those days are normally
grammar school holidays or special schedules.

acceptance for eighth grade, could I apply for ninth grade?
Absolutely.
Should I apply for
eighth grade because there will not be many openings for ninth grade?

so students’ chances of being accepted are the same for both grades.
Please know, however, that Archbishop Rummel does not
“pre-accept” students for ninth grade during seventh grade.

classes?

scores, report cards, teacher recommendations and the placement test
scores. Also, Archbishop Rummel has severalcurricula : honors,
academic, basic.

offer scholarships?

are offered. The school awards scholarships based on scores made on the

that can be earned.
