ADMISSIONS TESTING
Testing
The
International School of Panama has established high standards of academic
achievement for its students. The purpose of the testing procedure is to provide
the school with an indication of the applicant's math and language ability in
relation to the school standards. Applicants for all grades are tested for
school readiness and social maturity.
All
students will be tested by the Principal or other qualified staff member.
Testing for the following school year will be carried out from April through
August. Those applications for mid-year will be given tests on an individual
basis. Parents will be notified of the appointment date and time for testing. If
a child misses two testing dates, the application will be withdrawn from the
list. A testing fee of US$25.00 for Junior Kindergarten and US$50.00 for Kinder
through twelve is due before the test is administered.
