Application Process

The Application Process

We are currently accepting applications for our elementary (K-5) and middle school (6-8) programs for the 2009-2010 school year on a space-available basis. Please call (858) 576-2120 to speak with our admissions staff regarding specific grade level openings.

The following outlines the steps of our application process:

1. Schedule a tour

You may schedule a tour by contacting us at (858) 576-2120 or completing the online form: Schedule a Tour. During the tour you will have the opportunity to ask questions, meet the Principals or Executive Director, visit the classrooms, and hear what makes TCPS one of San Diego's best private schools. At the conclusion of the tour you will receive an application packet. You may also download the packet below.

2. Complete the application packet.

The application packet contains:

  • A parent form- This form allows us to get to know your child through your eyes. After all, nobody knows your child better than you. This form allows you to tell us about your child. What do you see as their strengths? Areas for improvement? What are your goals for your child?
  • Teacher Recommendation Form- This form is completed by your child's current teacher(s). The teacher will return this form directly back to TCPS.
  • Record Release- This form allows us to communicate with any other people that you believe we should talk to in order to better understand your child.
  • Permission to Evaluate- This form gives us your permission to evaluate your child for admission to TCPS.

Once all materials are complete and we have received your $100 non-refundable application fee, we will schedule a time for your child to meet with one of our Principals for the evaluation. The goal of this 45 minute evaluation is to begin to get to know your child. Part of the evaluation is an academic assessment.

4. Receive written notification

After evaluations, parents will receive written notification of a decision regarding placement at TCPS.
