Razi
School accepts students in Prekindergarten through
twelfth grade, space permitting. Prekindergarten
applicants must be three years old and potty trained
by September 1st, and kindergarten applicants must
be five years old by December 31st of that calendar
year. Students applying at the high school level
should inquire as to their eligibility in meeting
the Razi School graduation requirements by the end
of the 12th grade. Razi School's high school program
is a full Regents, college preparatory curriculum
where students are expected to earn a minimum of
30 credits. In addition, students must meet performance
standards by passing various Regents Exams as well
as school prepared examinations. Credit for previous
schooling is awarded as appropriate.
Admission
Testing
All
applicants, except for Prekindergarten, must take
an Admission Exam. Applicants for kindergarten are
assessed to determine their readiness for school
learning. Applicants for first grade and up are
assessed on their achievement in language, mathematics,
and science. There is a Fourthy Dollar fee for the exam.
Students who cannot read, speak, or write English
on their age appropriate grade level will be tested
in their native language. Those who score within
the standard of Razi School will be accepted (space
permitting), but will be placed in the ESL Program.
Acceptance
& Grade Placement
Decisions
on admission to Razi School are made by the administration
as soon as all relevant information has been received.
To be eligible for admission, the student must demonstrate
academic abilities, which are compatible with the
educational standard of Razi School. Decisions made
by the administration are communicated to the parents
as promptly as possible. Grade placement in Razi
School is the sole responsibility of the school,
as are teacher and class designations. If no place
is available due to a full class, the applicant
will be placed on a waiting list.
Health
Requirements
Proof
of immunization and a recent PPD (regardless if
the child received BCG) must be presented to the
school before the student is allowed to attend class.
Per New York City health regulations, students in
Prekindergarten through first grade and any students
transferring to Razi School from a school outside
of New York City must have the school medical form
completed and signed by a physician prior to attending
classes. All students must be immunized according
to New York State health requirements.
Financial
Responsibility
Once
a child has been accepted, the non-refundable tuition
deposit and the non-refundable registration fee
are due. Before a student is allowed to attend class,
the school must receive all due tuition and fees.
Re-registration occurs from March - April each year.
Failure to re-register at this time will result
in a possible loss of a place for your child for
the following academic year.
Withdrawals
& Transfer of Records
Written
notice of transfer or withdrawal is mandatory. To
withdraw or transfer your child to another school
at any time during the school year, a parent must
come to the school office and complete the necessary
forms. Records of students will be forwarded to
receiving schools when forms are complete and tuition
bills have been paid in full.
Transfer
to Razi School
Schools
in the United States: If your child is attending
a school in the US, the Admissions Office will request
academic information and end-of-year grades directly
from the previous school. To do so, you must provide
the following:
1. The complete mailing address of the student’s
current school.
2. A signed record request form from Razi School.
Outside the United States: If your child
is attending a school outside the US, the previous
school is required to mail an official transcript
for at least the past two years of academic study
to the Admissions Office of Razi School. The official
records should include copies of any national examinations.
Teacher or headmaster comments are desirable.
