Enrollment Process

We are now accepting enrollment applications for the 2025-26 school year. Transfer students may still enroll for the current school year.

Essentials

Hampton Roads Classical is open to all families who desire a traditional education in the liberal arts and sciences. We encourage parents to carefully review the academy’s mission, vision, philosophy of education, and curriculum before applying for admission. Prospective students are admitted to Hampton Roads Classical if they are committed to completing the academic program and integrating into the culture of the school. Students are enrolled at the discretion of the Administration. We reserve the right to refuse admission or continued enrollment to anyone. Applications will be reviewed in the order received.

  • Our office will schedule a family interview and admissions assessment for your child. This typically takes approximately 45 minutes. The assessment is used to give admissions and teachers an idea of your child’s ability level for placement. This can be scheduled on the same day as the family interview.

  • A completed enrollment packet and enrollment fee payment will guarantee your child’s spot for the following school year. Classes are filled in the order enrollments are received.

Waiting List

  • Applications will be accepted without an enrollment fee due until a spot becomes available.

  • Once a spot is available, families will be notified in the order applications were received.

  • Families who do not submit the enrollment fee within 48 hours of an opening will forfeit their place on the waiting list, and the next family on the waiting list will be contacted.

Application and Enrollment fees are non-refundable, as the school makes budgetary and hiring decisions based on enrollment.
