Upper School
Admissions is a year round activity focusing on recruitment of prospective students and their families to St. Anne-Pacelli.
Admission to the upper school is open to students entering grades 9-12.
Ninth and tenth grade students applying for admission are required to take an entrance exam, which assists in the recommendation of honors or regular course selection.

Prospective students are encouraged to experience the life of the school with a visit arranged through the Admissions Director. Parents should arrange to meet with our admissions director and are encouraged to attend our January Open House.
We look forward to welcoming many new families to St. Anne-Pacelli. We encourage all members of the school community to refer prospective families to the school. We hold an Open House each year for new families, and welcome tour requests year round.
