Teacher Recommendations

• Must be two of your child’s most recent or current teachers, preferably a Math and English teacher.
• Homeschooled Students Only: In lieu of teacher recommendations, we will accept two character reference letters.
  • Character reference letters can be from employers, mentors, coaches, volunteer supervisors, etc.
  • These letters should attest to your child’s overall character including, but not limited to, their strengths, weaknesses, and accomplishments.
• How to Request a Teacher Recommendation:
  • An electronic recommendation form can be requested from each teacher by clicking on the ‘Manage’ button listed under the Teacher Recommendation Checklists and inputting their email.
  • Please be sure that the teacher is aware that they will be receiving the request and to check their spam if necessary. The email will come from info+farragut@schooladminonline.com.

Discipline Report

• A copy of your child’s discipline report from their current school is required for admission to Upper School.
• If your child’s school does not have a formal discipline report, the Admissions Office will accept a letter from a school principal and/or guidance counselor indicating if your child has a disciplinary history.
