Teaching Approach

Admissions

Updated 8mo ago

For first-time enrollment, families are instructed to contact the academy office (phone or email) to set an appointment; the school schedules a campus tour and an interview with the administrator and then sends a link to apply online. For preschool, listed prerequisites include that the child turns three by September 30 of the enrollment year and is potty-trained, with immunizations current and a physical current within 60 days of the first day of school. The site also notes that a completed enrollment application is submitted with a $225 registration fee (non-refundable) and that supply fees are due in installments (with specific due dates listed during June/July of the enrollment year, and fees due at enrollment for students enrolling after July 1). The website states the school year runs from August 23 to May 31, and tuition payment plans typically begin in June and run through the following May. The site does not describe a waitlist process or any priority admissions categories; families would need to confirm availability, timelines, and any prioritization directly with the academy office.
