K-12 Testing

We require all K-12 applicants to be tested:

• Kindergarten through 5th grade applicants are tested at Christian Academy
• 6th through 12th grade applicants may submit a copy of their Secondary School Admissions Test (SSAT) results in lieu of taking the complete CA admissions test, though they will still be asked to come in for a math placement test and writing sample. Those who have not taken the SSAT will complete the entire CA admissions test.
• 12th grade applicants should also submit a copy of their college Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) scores
