Interview

Building relationships is important to us. After the above items are submitted and processed, you will be notified to sign your child up for an interview. This will give us the opportunity to learn about your child's interests, strengths, goals, values, and their learning style. It also allows us to see how they interact socially and how their personality can be used to enhance their learning. With this information, we can create learning experiences that are more personal for the students.

Testing

Learning rates vary by student, so we want students to learn at a pace that fit their needs. In order to select the most appropriate starting place, all students will be tested for placement in both reading and math. There are no additional fees for diagnostic testing and the test will be completed on the day of the student interview.

Parent Conference

During the parent conference, we will share your child's diagnostic testing data, share strategies and resources your child can use at home, and answer any questions you have before your child starts Kipe Academy.
