How to enroll
- 01
Step 1: Get in touch
Write to us with the form on the contact page, or call the office. The head of school or the office manager answers, usually within a day or two.
- 02
Step 2: Visit the school
Come for a visit morning on a Tuesday or Thursday. Your child spends the morning in class with one grade, and you talk with the head of school about what your family is looking for.
- 03
Step 3: Apply
Apply after a visit. The application asks about your child's school so far and what has worked. Applications open in November for the fall, and we begin reading them in February.
- 04
Step 4: Hear from us
We write back in March, by letter and by phone. If every place in a grade is taken, a family can join the waitlist.

Step 5: The first day
The first day is in late August. Sixth graders come for a short morning first, and everyone meets their homeroom teacher at the door.
