AdmissionHoly Family School admits students of any race, color, national and ethnic origin to all the rights, privileges, programs and activities generally accorded or made available to students at our school.
Similar policies apply to the school staff. Our school does not discriminate on the basis or race, color, national and ethnic origin in the administration of its educational policies, its admission policies or any school administered program.
Holy Family School is a Catholic Elementary School which is supported by the parishioners of St. Joseph Church in Aston, St. John Fisher Church in Boothwyn, Our Lady of Charity in Brookhaven, St. Francis De Sales in Lenni and St. Cornelius in Chadds Ford. Because our whole philosophy of education is based on Catholic Christian principles and morality, it is important that members of our school community are active members of their own Church.
A good religiously based education can only build on values and principles already taught in the home. Therefore, it is a prerequisite of entrance into Holy Family Regional Catholic School that parents/guardians, not only accept, but wholeheartedly support the religious, academic and disciplinary programs of our school.
Children will be accepted in Holy Family Regional Catholic School pending the reception of satisfactory school records and evaluations from the previous school attended.
Families with outstanding financial responsibilities in previous schools will not be accepted into Holy Family Regional Catholic School.
It is the policy of Holy Family Regional Catholic School that students applying for admission to sixth, seventh or eighth grade will be considered for acceptance only if they are transferring from another Catholic school or are parishioners in good standing of St. John Fisher and St. Joseph Churches.

Continuous EnrollmentHoly Family utilizes a "Continuous Enrollment" concept for students enrolled in our school. Continuous Enrollment assumes that once enrolled, a child will continue their education until graduation from eighth grade. Since most of our families remain year after year, this will streamline the enrollment process by reducing time and paperwork for parents and the school
staff.
Students currently enrolled will be automatically enrolled for each subsequent school year. New families will need to complete initial paperwork.
Each enrollment period, parents will be given the opportunity to opt-out of continuous enrollment for the following school year by filling out an opt-out form.
Please contact Mrs. Regotti or Mrs. Cobb with any questions by sending an email to admin@HolyFamilyAston.org
