ACADEMIC ASSESSMENT & INTERVIEW
Once your admission application has been submitted, we will contact you to schedule your child’s academic assessment (K-8th grades) and interview. For students applying to kindergarten and first grade, student assessments take place one-on-one with a teacher; all other assessments are written tests taken independently by the child.
