Admissions Steps

In your FinalSite profile, there will be a checklist that is required to complete your student's application. 

An application is considered complete once each of the following items is checked off and reviewed.

Below is a detailed understanding of each checklist item:

• Applicant Photo
  • We want to add a face to a name!
  • Please provide an appropriate photo of your child, from the shoulders up is preferred.
• Request for Records
  • Complete the Record Release Form.
  • This form will require you to insert the name and email address to a guidance counselor, assistant principal, or secretary at your child's school.
    • RECORDS REQUIRED FOR ADMISSIONS
      • Transcripts or copies of final report cards from the previous 2 years.
        • If Accepted, we request the final 8th Grade Report Card.
        • PLEASE NOTE: Incoming transfer students need a high school transcript for previous and current high school grade levels.
      • Most recent standardized test scores (Terra Nova, PSSA, etc.) *THESE MUST INCLUDE THE NUMERIC SCORE*.
      • Formal Discipline Report/Conduct Record from current school (Principal, Guidance Office, Student Services).
        • If your school does not provide discipline records, please provide a written statement on school letterhead stating such.
      • Attendance Records
      • If applicable, IEP/504/Psychological Evaluation documentation
        • Any student who has a 504/Psychological Evaluation documentation must schedule an interview for the Drexel Program, our learning support opportunity.
    • Student Activities/Athletics Form
      • • Fill out the form for the activities and sports that your student is currently involved in!

In your FinalSite profile, in the optional steps will be the option to schedule an appointment for a Shadow Day Visit, School Tour, or Open House.  

Please note, in order to visit on a shadow day or tour, an application must be fully completed with records and activities forms.

Please, no walk-ins. 

Shadow Days

Our Shadow Day is an authentic "day in the life" of a Bonner & Prendie student. The day begins with your child coming in and checking in with our Admissions Team.

Once your student is checked in, they will enjoy a student-led tour of our school, as well as attending four class periods with one of our current freshman students. Your child will receive free lunch during their Shadow Day. If your student has any food allergies, please have them bring their lunch.

How do I sign up for a Shadow Day?

Once your child's application is fully complete, return to your FinalSite Account and sign up for an available Shadow Day spot. If you sign up and are unable to have your child attend, please let our office know within 24 hours before your child's scheduled shadow day.

If there is a current freshman student you would like to request to host your child for the day, you may request them when you sign your child up for the Shadow Day.

Please note: Upperclass students (Sophomore through Senior) are not eligible to host 8th grade shadows.

 Please have your student wear their school uniform or Sunday best!
