2 | Complete an application by April 6, 2025
The application for 2025-2026 is now open. Complete a new student application for priority consideration by April 6, 2025. Applications will continue to be accepted through June 30, 2025, as space allows. Applications after June 30 for K-12 students are under special consideration, so please contact our Enrollment Specialist after June 30 to inquire about remaining space in classrooms. Full-time preschool students with an application completed by April 6 will be given priority consideration and part-time students will be notified by June. Preschool student applications are accepted at any time while space remains.
This includes a $55 nonrefundable application fee. Applications can be submitted at any time.
3 | Acceptance
If an application is submitted by the April 6, 2025, priority admission deadline, you will receive a notification by April 11, 2025. If submitted after, you will be notified within 2-3 weeks of your application to let you know about your spot for the fall. We do our best to accommodate all applicants, but space continues to be limited. You are always welcome to contact our Admissions office with questions.
4 | Complete the enrollment packet online
If a spot is offered to you, there is an online enrollment packet that will need to be completed within 30 days of acceptance. This will also include paying the non-refundable student enrollment fees and providing vaccine records/waiver, birth certificate, and completing a background check for parents to volunteer in our building. If it is not completed within 30 days, the spot may be released to a family on the waiting list.
