Admissions Apply

Apply

The admissions season for the 2025-26 school year will open on October 1st and last through January 31st. Read below for more information on how to apply.

Application Process

First, fill out an Inquiry Form. Our admissions director will then reach out to you to set up a tour and meeting (adults only) with our Director and/or Assistant Director.

Then, create an online account on our application platform and submit the $55 application fee. We ask families to submit their applications before the day of their tour.

Families will be notified of our decisions in mid March. A signed contract, accompanied by an enrollment deposit, ensures a child’s placement for the fall. When the number of applicants exceeds the number of spaces, waitlist notifications will be sent, and families will be called from the waitlist as spots become available. Current and alumni families as well as children of staff are given enrollment priority.
