Admissions Process
Admission decisions are based upon a combination of several factors that include admissions testing, previous school records, report cards, standardized test results, teacher recommendations and our observations of the child. Important also is the information and observations that you, who know the child best, share with us. The goal in Admissions is to work closely with a family and with our faculty to ensure that each child will have the support and stimulation needed to flourish.
