我的孩子在Horace Mann就讀。6年級(jí)和9年級(jí)是兩個(gè)主要的入學(xué)年級(jí),6年級(jí)招收50-55名新生,9年級(jí)招收35-40名新生。SSAT只是招生要求之一,學(xué)校會(huì)綜合評(píng)定孩子的整體實(shí)力

我們致電了學(xué)校的Admission Office , 學(xué)校說:我們考慮一個(gè)學(xué)生是否合適,不是單純的看分?jǐn)?shù),有許多其他綜合的因素,但是我們要求學(xué)生的英語非常非常Strong,標(biāo)化成績,面試,在校成績,推薦信僅僅是許多因素中的一些而已。
學(xué)校要求的,不但是學(xué)生,也希望家長對(duì)該社區(qū)能夠做出貢獻(xiàn)。
這是學(xué)校老師特意讓我們看的一段內(nèi)容,供您參考:
All applicants should apply to their next successive grade level. We may suggest that a student repeat a grade if, after evaluating an application, we believe that placement is more appropriate.
Our process is designed to be age appropriate, and at every level we are looking for students who will benefit from and be successful in our program, and we also look for families who will be positive members of our community. We base that assessment on all the pieces of the application, including but not limited to the school records, teacher recommendations, and the interview.
We also find the standardized testing to be important because it provides the only 'standard' measure that all applicants have in common. We see applicants from many different areas and many different schools, and their backgrounds are varied. The testing enables us to assess them compared to the larger group. However, the standardized test is only one measure of an applicant's success, and we use it in conjunction with the other required materials. Please refer to the ISEE and SSAT websites for more information about the tests. -
這是美國多年爬藤率排名第一的私校,留學(xué)生一定要有父母陪讀才有機(jī)會(huì)申請,而且機(jī)會(huì)難上加難。如果孩子非常優(yōu)秀,父母也有條件陪讀,不妨試一試。好些年前,我和該校系主任Mr. Worrall有過一次愉快的交流,他還email邀請我有機(jī)會(huì)去紐約到學(xué)校看看。
