Admissions

Our programs are currently full for the 2025-26 school year. We will continue to fill openings from the waitlist as they become available. We are currently accepting waitlist applications for the 2025-26, 2026-27, 2027-28, and 2028-29 school years.

Children can be added to our waitlists at any time after the child’s birth by completing the Enrollment Application below. Following submission you will receive an email confirming your addition to the waitlist. Admission is based on space availability and age eligibility, with preference first given to returning families and staff, and then to the date of application submission. We encourage families to apply early.

Open House Events

We host several open houses each school year, and encourage families to attend one of our events to explore our learning spaces, meet our educators, and learn more about our unique program. Upcoming open house dates are October 8, 2025, January 7, 2026 and March 11, 2026.

We typically do not offer individual tours so if a visit to our campus is important for you to accept a placement with us please plan to attend an Open House event prior to February of your preferred enrollment year. (e.g. If you are hoping to enroll for the 2026-27 school year please come visit before February 2026.)
