UPDATE as of 3/18/2023: STA has begun contacting applicant families via email and telephone, to share a status. This phase of our admission process is fluid, as we offer admission and must await completion of enrollment. Please be patient and continue to watch your emails as you await notification of your child’s admission status. It may be late-March/early-April before we have secured all spots on our rosters.
