Admissions Process
| Acceptance criteria: "This year, in an effort to make the admissions process equitable and open to as many interested community families as possible, we revised our customary application procedure. It is likely we will use the same procedures in Fall 2006: Applications may be requested by phone between September 11-29. A lottery method will be used to select the applicants who will proceed with a school tour or open house and the rest of the application process. Applicants' names will be entered into a lottery which will take place in mid-October. Parents of those applicants whose names are selected will be invited to see the school in late Oct or Nov. In January and February the children will visit the school for a small-group 'playdate' with a parent. Letters of notification will be mailed in early March, according to dates to be set by the Independent School Admissions Assoc. of Greater NY (ISAAGNY)." Extracted from preschool website based on sibling priority |
