4. Family Interview (student with both parents)

Once the application and all requisite materials have been received, we look forward to meeting with your family for this final conversation. Both parents are required to accompany the applicant(s) for the interview. This gives us the chance to get to know your family in a more personal way and assess your son’s academic readiness (he will read from a book out loud, work on a writing sample, and complete our math assessment ). It is also a great opportunity for you to better acquaint yourself with our school. The interview is expected to last an hour.

The Heights is Test-Optional. Accordingly, Upper School applicants, if they so choose, may take the SSAT or send us another similar standardized test score once it becomes available. You may send results directly to us. Regardless of whether standardized tests are submitted, all applicants will read aloud to their interviewer, provide a short writing sample during the family interview, and complete written work during their visit day. Consequently, The Heights does not require a standardized test, but rather leaves it to the applicant family to decide whether such a test is in the best interest of their son.
