TESTING AND PLACEMENT

Every student at ASA is on a path to prepare for college or conservatory success. That’s our mission! In order to ensure that students have the support and/or challenge they need, we make placements thoughtfully based upon prior grade reports, records, and prior testing. Both standard college prep and advanced programs in Math and English Language Arts are available at every grade level. In high school, AP and Dual Enrollment credits are also available. All placements are made once an offer has been accepted and records have been received. If the school needs more information to make the proper placement, you may be asked to bring your student to campus for an additional placement test/evaluation. Testing will take place on March 3, 2025.

The buttons below provide the standard course sequence for middle and high school.

MIDDLE SCHOOL COURSE SEQUENCE HIGH SCHOOL COURSE SEQUENCE

The performing arts play an important role in developing academic success. The goal for the ASA performing arts program is for the student to gain mastery in a specific arts area or discipline. Students are placed in classes according to skill rather than age/grade level. The evaluation process for requests for placement higher than the beginning level is designed to assist students in discovering the most suitable level of arts education that will stimulate and inspire them to accomplish their objectives. All incoming dance students must participate in the evaluation process for placement regardless of level.

ASA offers programs in music, theatre, and dance (click links for course sequences). Placement in ASA performing arts classes is based upon availability at each student’s performance level. 

New students who have accepted an offer of enrollment will receive their performing arts classes by mid-May. All performing arts classes are assigned for new students based on the order of receipt of their arts request and their evaluation results. All art classes at ASA are limited by class size.
