Admissions Process

Our priority application deadline was February 1, 2023. We are now considering applicants on a space available basis.

If there is no space available, student applicants may be placed in a wait pool. In cases where there are multiple applicants in the wait pool when an opening becomes available, students will be considered for admission on a priority basis according to our admissions policy.

If you'd like to inquire about availability in a specific grade level for the 2023-2024 school year, please contact our Admissions Director, Laura Leach.
