How to enroll
Most families visit twice before they decide. Nothing here has to happen in a hurry.
- 01
Step 1: Get in touch
Call the office, send a message or use the form. The head of school writes back within two school days.
- 02
Step 2: Visit the school
Come to an open house or book a visit day: a morning in a classroom and a conversation with the head of school. Students are welcome.
- 03
Step 3: Apply
A short application asks about your family and what you would like us to know. The student then spends a day in class.
- 04
Step 4: Hear from us
Families hear by phone within three weeks of the student visit, and then by letter.
- 05
Step 5: Register
Families sign the enrollment agreement to hold a place and fill in the school's forms privately with the office.

Step 6: The first day
Late in August. A teacher meets each family at the door, and the first week is short days so everyone can settle in.
