For applicants to the 2024-2025 school year, we do not yet know if we will have space available in Classes II-IV. However, we would like you to begin the application process by submitting an application and we will keep you informed as to space availability as the year progresses.

Schedule Student Assessment and Schoolhouse Tour

After you submit your application, you will have access to the appointment calendar to schedule a time for your daughter to come visit in person for a group assessment, and for you to take a tour of the Schoolhouse with a current parent. We will send along more information about the student assessment after you schedule your appointment.

3.

Schedule Virtual OR In-Person Parent/Guardian Interview

After you submit your application, you will have access to the appointment calendar to make an appointment for a virtual parent/guardian interview or an in-person parent/guardian interview (on a separate date which will require a second visit to the Schoolhouse) with a member of our admissions team. It may be helpful for you to schedule the interview appointment to happen after the Schoolhouse tour and assessment, but it is not required.
