As part of the admissions process, we meet with each family to assess the student’s readiness to engage positively with peers and the curriculum. This includes age-appropriate evaluations of listening, speaking, reading, writing skills, and social maturity. While we welcome students from diverse language backgrounds, applicants should demonstrate a foundational level of English to participate meaningfully in school life.
We also take time to discuss educational philosophies and expectations with parents or guardians to ensure strong alignment between the family’s goals and the school’s values.
Following receipt of an application, we invite families to meet with us, either in person or virtually. Some applicants may be asked to complete an English language assessment to determine if we can provide the language support needed.
