Visiting the website is a great way to learn about High Point, but an even better way to discover our school is to visit on campus and see for yourself what makes HPBA so special. We would love to meet you and give you a tour of our campus or have you attend an open house. Please feel free to contact us to schedule a tour, or inquire for more information at admissions@hpbacademy.org. We look forward to assisting you with the admissions process.
The admission process follows a series of steps. When you decide to apply your child to our school, you will need to prepare for the following stages:
