The first step of enrollment is filling out a Prospective Student Form. If your student meets the initial criteria and we feel he or she might be a fit for our school, you will be contacted for an interview and academic assessment. After the interview and academic assessment, the caregivers will be contacted and enrollment will be discussed and finalized. If there are no spots available in a particular class, the student will be put on the waiting list for the next available spot.
