Head Start Educational Academy (HSEA)

How they admit

Families complete an online application through the school's admissions portal after registering. The admissions committee reviews forms against grade-wise vacancies and invites selected families for an in-person campus interaction; applicants to Grades 4-9 and Grade 11 also sit a readiness test assessing conceptual understanding across subjects. Decisions weigh vacancy, the child's needs and alignment of parental philosophy with the school's, and are communicated within four to six weeks of receipt of the application
