The Howard Gardner School

The Howard Gardner School describes an experiential, intentionally small program that treats each student as an individual and helps bright, creative, non-traditional learners use their unique strengths to thrive academically, intellectually, and emotionally. (thehowardgardnerschool.com) Their curriculum emphasizes “college prep, differently” through differentiated instruction, connected/interdisciplinary learning, and progressive education where students actively help shape learning and school community life, with a focus on depth, real-world application, and multiple intelligences.

The Howard Gardner School states it has limited enrollment to maintain a small school community, and it uses rolling admissions, accepting applications and enrolling students throughout the year. (thehowardgardnerschool.com) To apply, families are instructed to contact the school directly (phone or email) for admissions/enrollment inquiries, and the school notes the process is “bespoke” for each student and family. (thehowardgardnerschool.com) The website does not publish fixed application deadlines; it only describes a common pattern (families often start searching in the fall, apply in early spring, and enroll the following school year) and also notes some families seek immediate placement. (thehowardgardnerschool.com) The admissions page does not list specific application requirements (e.g., documents, testing, interviews) beyond reaching out to admissions. (thehowardgardnerschool.com) It also does not describe a waitlist process or any priority/precedence categories for admission decisions. (thehowardgardnerschool.com)
