origin in the administration of our educational policies, admission policies, athletic or other schoolsponsored
programs. Admission to Saint Viator High School implies an acceptance on the part of

Ninth Grade Admission
All eighth grade graduates, regardless of sex, race, color or national/ethnic origin are eligible for
admission to Saint Viator High School. In January, an entrance test is given to prospective students.
Test scores and previous academic performance are used to determine admission. An admissions
committee reviews the entrance test performance of any student whose score falls in the lowest
quartile. The admissions committee considers entrance test results and weighs previous academic
performance and teacher evaluation. Additional data may be required before admission is granted.
The admissions committee makes the final decision concerning admission.
