Application Process

If you haven't filled out or asked questions through our online inquiry, we'd love to hear from you.

We welcome your interest in Trinity School at Meadow View. Our goal is to make the application process simple and productive. We hope you can get to know us by participating in the events we've scheduled for prospective parents and students. Below are the standard steps to complete the application process.

Entrance Exam: Required as part of a complete application
Prospective seventh and eighth graders take the Short Form Aptitude Test. All other students take a math test on skills required for the next grade level. To schedule a time to take the exam, contact Dr. Kay Yohe, Admissions Director, at kyohe@trinityschools.org or 703-629-9980.


Candidate Interview
All prospective students are interviewed by the headmaster or one of the teachers. The interview takes 15 to 20 minutes.


Application Forms

Homeschooling parents should fill out the letters of reference. If their child has attended a traditional school recently, they may request school records from that school to be forwarded to Meadow View. If the child has always been homeschooled, copies of standardized tests from the last two years should be included with the application.

Visit Us

For parents, we offer an informal Information Night each month from 7:30 to 8:30 p.m. in West Hall. Andrew J. Zwerneman, the Headmaster, gives an overview of Trinity School's educational philosophy, curriculum and Christian culture. He allows ample time to answer questions from parents in attendance. Kay Yohe, the Director of Admissions, is available to discuss how to apply to Trinity School.

Campus Visits
To help parents discern whether Trinity School is a good match for their child, we allow prospective students to spend a day on campus, attending classes and meeting our students. Mr. Zwerneman is also glad to meet with interested families and give them a tour of campus. The Director of Admissions would be happy to schedule either type of visit for you.

Public Events

We welcome prospective families to join us at one of our drama productions, semester recitals, sports games or other school-sponsored events. Please let us know if you would like to attend any of these events to experience more of our school culture.
