What should I do to prepare for the St. Thomas School admissions interview?

The admissions interview is an important step in the process. It allows the school to learn more about your child’s personality, interests, and academic strengths. Interviews should be scheduled before mid-January, and since slots fill quickly, it’s best to book early. To prepare, encourage your child to practice answering common questions about their favorite subjects, hobbies, and why they want to attend St. Thomas School. Remind them to be confident, speak clearly, and be themselves. Dressing neatly and maintaining eye contact can also leave a good impression. Encourage them to ask questions about the school to show interest. A strong interview can help the admissions team see why your child would be a great fit for their community.
