EKAPS Registration
To complete enrollment at EKAPS, families must submit all enrollment documentation needed to finalize the registration process. Enrollment decisions are based solely on space availability in the grade level applied for.
At EKAPS, we also use a Parent/Student/Teacher Agreement to confirm our shared expectations for attendance, learning, communication, and campus conduct. All EKAPS families review this agreement as part of the EKAPS Handbook prior to the start of the school year or, for mid-year enrollments, before the student’s first day. Completion of the handbook review serves as acknowledgment of these expectations and helps set students up for success from day one.
Next Steps: Please review the documentation needed to enroll, including age and immunization requirements, as well as the school fee information listed below.
What You’ll Need to Enroll

EKAPS requests academic records—such as grades, attendance, and discipline history—for academic placement purposes only. These records help ensure appropriate class placement and a smooth transition for each student.
