Admission Requirements

New students are accepted into Hopewell Baptist Academy only if they and their parents are faithful members of Hopewell Baptist Church. Parents wishing to enroll their children in HBA should obtain application forms and a Student Handbook from the school office. 

Selection of students is based partly on past achievement, the testing program and interviews with the adminisstration and openings in their grade. Family life, church status, general behavior, and character references are carefully considered. A pledge by parents to back the authority of the school to insist that their child abide by the policies of the school and to promote a spirit of cooperation if necessary for admission.

After the parent and prospective student have read the handbook and completed the forms, an appointment should be made for an interview with the Pastor. Upon completion of the interview, provided the requirements for acceptance have been met, financial agreements must be made to the financial secretary. All new students will be on a six-week probation.
