STUDENT WRITING SAMPLE Please upload a sample of written work completed by your child as a school assignment during the current academic year. The sample may be an essay, paragraph or response/reflection. We understand that there are a wide variety of ways that written work is assigned and teachers provide feedback. We prefer that the writing sample include the description of the assignment and the teacher comments/feedback/grade if available. Deadline: December 15, 2023
ISAAGNY SCHOOL COMMON ESSAY Students will be required to respond so several chosen prompts to complete short essays that will be shared with other schools utilizing the same form. Deadline: December 15, 2023
TEACHER RECOMMENDATIONS Poly Prep requires Math and English teacher recommendations. If both subjects are taught by one person, that teacher may complete both recommendation forms. We strongly recommend that you request the recommendations after October 15 to give the teacher enough time to get to know your child and complete the form before it is due. Deadline: January 11, 2024
TRANSCRIPTS Print the Transcript Request Form in Ravenna and submit it to the records office at your child’s current school after December 1. Deadline: January 11, 2024
ISEE OR SSAT TESTING Testing is optional for all grades this year so that our applications process does not preclude students who may not have access to resources that enable them to take the test remotely. We support equally students who decide to submit standardized test results and those who do not. Deadline: January 11, 2024
SUPPLEMENTAL DOCUMENTS Any other supplemental documents as detailed on the application. Deadline: January 11, 2024
