Interested in St. Matthew’s? The first step is just to gather some information. Please fill out this inquiry form and we will contact you or call 757-420-2455 to speak to our Director of Admissions. From there, you can request a private tour or request an application. We accept applications beginning in November of the prior school year. Once accepted, you will be sent an enrollment packet (beginning in the spring), which will complete your enrollment for the next school year.
St. Matthew’s has an Open House in January (see the school calendar) and you are invited to come by to tour our school, talk to our teachers, and meet some of our students. This is wonderful opportunity if you are unable to schedule a private tour.
We do accept students mid-year in grades where we have openings. Please fill out this form or call us at 757-420-2455 if you are interested.
