We are thrilled that you’re applying to Saint George’s School for your student! Thank you for including us in your search to find the perfect educational fit for your family.
We have tried to make the application process as straight forward as possible, but if you have any additional questions or need more information, please reach out to Tami Peplinski at 509-464-8744 or tami.peplinski@sgs.org.
Tell us about your student. We encourage applications from students of all races, national and ethnic origins, religions, and physical abilities whose learning and promise would be well-served by the challenge of our curriculum and the character of our community. Applications are accepted year round, with those completed prior to April 1 receiving first priority.
Once your online application is complete, we will schedule a student visit and assessment day for your child to come spend the day at SGS and experience firsthand how Saint George’s is inspiring scholars, athletes and artists to serve and lead others.
Once you have submitted the application, please allow 24 business hours for our Admissions department to process it. Once your form has been processed you will see a checklist of items appear in your Finalsite Enrollment account. These items need to be completed prior to scheduling the students visit and assessment day. Below is an outline of these items:
Saint George’s uses Finalsite Enrollment for our online application process. You will need to set up an account with Finalsite Enrollment to start the application by clicking the button above.
A $75 application fee applies for all domestic students and a $100 fee applies for all International students. You will be prompted to pay the fee when you are ready to submit the application form in Finalsite Enrollment.
All applications must include a copy of the applicant’s most recent progress/grade report. Upload this under “Current Year Grades / Transcript” in your Finalsite Enrollment account.
Applicants first through twelfth grade must also include a copy of end-of-year progress report from the prior school year. Upload this under “Previous Year Grades / Transcript” in your Finalsite Enrollment account
If the student has taken any type of standardized test, such as SAT, PSAT, MAP, SBA, WaKids, TOEFL, etc, please upload this under “Standardized Test Scores” in your Finalsite Enrollment account. If your student has not taken any type of standardized test you may skip this step.
Once all other steps have been competed in Finalsite Enrollment, please call or email the Admissions Office to schedule a visitation day. Students applying from out of the area or internationally may complete this step with a virtual meeting.(509) 464-8744 | tami.peplinski@sgs.org
You will type the contact information for the teacher(s) you are wanting to request a recommendation(s) from on your application form in Finalsite Enrollment. Once your online application has been processed you will need to log back into your account to generate the electronic request for the recommendation(s). Click on “request” under the “Teacher Recommendation” section of your online checklist. Enter the teacher’s name and email address when prompted and then click request. The electronic form will be sent directly to the teacher, and once they have it completed it will automatically come back to the Finalsite Enrollment system. You will receive an email notification once the teacher has submitted the form. You are in control of when you generate the request. The system will not automatically notify anyone until you are ready to do so.
– Only one recommendation is necessary for kindergarten and 1st grade applicants (from their current teacher)
– Two recommendations are required for 2nd – 6th grade applicants (one from their teacher from the prior school year and one from their current teacher)
– Two recommendations are required for 7th – 12th grade applicants (one recommendation from their Math teacher and one recommendation from either their History or English teacher)
Upload a current picture of your student in Finalsite Enrollment.
Upload a copy of your child’s immunization record in Finalsite Enrollment.
*Please note: once a student has been accepted, a copy of their Medically Verified Immunization Record must be on file prior to the students first day of class.
Dear SGS Community,
Our hearts are with everyone in our community affected by the Spokane Complex fires. To all who have been displaced or experienced immeasurable loss, and to the thousands across our region impacted, you are in our thoughts. We are also deeply grateful for the firefighters and first responders whose tireless work has protected and continues to protect so many lives, homes, and our campus.
A few important updates:
We are here for you:
We know this has been incredibly difficult for so many of our families. If you have been displaced, your housing situation (or address) has changed, or there’s anything we should know to better support your family, please reach out to us at communitysupport@sgs.org. Leave a short note to let us know how our community can support you with any needs you may have. You don’t have to face this alone.
If you need to update your bus transportation location or ridership to start the year, email our Transportation Director, John Young, at john.young@sgs.org.
Campus is open:
Campus is open and available if we can be of assistance.
Relief fund & donation drive:
We are establishing a drive for school supplies, clothing, gift cards, and cash donations for families in need. We do not know the full extent of what folks will need, but we are hoping to build a list once we hear from our families.
If you would like to donate items, email us at communitysupport@sgs.org, and our volunteers will pick items up from you — no need to travel.
We are also establishing the SGS Community Relief Fund to collect monetary donations to aid our SGS families and community members whose homes were lost or damaged. You can access the SGS Give Now page to donate or for more information.
Back-to-school mailing:
As you prepare for the start of school and the upper school trips, please read through the materials you received via email earlier this summer — they contain important information for the year ahead.
New Family Float CANCELLED:
The New Family Float scheduled for August 15 has been cancelled. We’ll be sure to welcome our new families in another way once things stabilize.
Please take care of yourselves and one another. We are a strong and resilient community, and with our generosity of spirit and sincere care, we will get through this together.
Take care and be safe this weekend!
Sincerely,
Jamie Tender
Head of School
