Fall to Spring - Fire Family Visits
Fire Family Visits are small group, on-campus information sessions with personalized tours led by our student ambassadors. This is a great opportunity for families in middle school to learn more about Holy Family.
Fire Family Visits will begin in the fall. Families are invited to contact our admissions team to schedule private family tours during the spring and summer months.
Now Open - Submit an Inquiry and Apply For Admissions
Submitting an inquiry form connects you with our Holy Family enrollment management system. From there, you will be able to track your admission progress and see upcoming events and deadlines.
An admissions team member will reach out to you to answer any questions you may have, help you plan your visit to campus, and share information on the next steps in the enrollment process, including your log-in information.
December 20, 2024 - Early Application Deadline
October 2024 Variable Tuition Rate Application Opens
Requests for a variable tuition rate through our financial aid program should be made to HFCHS using TADS online service immediately after applying for admission. After completing an application for admission, the link for TADS will be available on your checklist. The TADS application must be completed and returned directly to the service with the appropriate documentation and application fee. We recommend families apply as early as possible for a variable tuition rate.
January 20-27, 2025 - Reading Placement Test
February 10, 2025 - Class Registration Night
Advice will be offered regarding class selection, getting involved at HF, and students will register for their ninth-grade classes through their Blackbaud account. Blackbaud limits registration access to those who have completed tuition agreements and their $500 tuition deposit to move forward with course registration. Students may continue to register for classes throughout the school year and summer months; however, elective options may fill and be unavailable.
Mid May and Early June 2025 - Math Placement Test Dates
July 2025 - Fire29 Summerpalooza
Late June / Early July - Uniforms
The online window for uniform purchases will open again in early summer. We will send out communication in advance. The school office carries a few pieces and is open during the summer for families who wish to try on items or purchase those available for sale. However, we recommend ordering some uniform pieces early as it's busy season for uniform suppliers. We also stock an inventory of Lands' End ladies' polos for those who prefer a cotton, feminine-fit shirt. You may stop by during business hours to try on and purchase these items.
August 12, 2024 - New Parent Night

More information will come closer to FIRE Academy, which will give specific information about what students need each day.
Parents are invited to join us on campus for a Fire28 Student and Parent Picnic at noon on the final day of FIRE Academy, Thursday, August 14.
