LIGHTHOUSE POINT ACADEMY APPLICATION PROCESS

The admission process begins with a visit to our school, including a tour. During the visit, families receive a packet containing all required application materials.

You can arrange your tour and campus visit by submitting a Request a Visit form or by calling Admissions directly at 954-247-0179.

Psychological-educational Evaluation

The admission procedure for the Lighthouse Point Academy Lower School (Grades 4-5) and Upper School (Grades 6-12) requires a complete psychological-educational evaluation. The evaluation enables the LPA admission committee to determine the appropriateness of our program for your child.

If a complete psychological-educational assessment has not been completed, please ask us for assistance and a referral. The assessment must include the following detailed subtests: 

• Results of a diagnostic interview, which includes cognitive testing and achievement testing. 
• Measures of information processing: these instruments should evaluate working memory, short and long term memory, processing speed, auditory processing, and graphomotor skill and automaticity. 
• Assessments that measure potential Attention Deficit Disorder, with scores that reflect both objective and subjective criteria. Examples are: BASC2, Acters, Conners, Gordon Diagnostic and TOVA. 
• Results must include a specific diagnosis (DSM-V) and actual test scores using standard and percentile scores.
