# Enrollment & Waitlist

## Three steps

### 1. Tour the school

Walk the classrooms, meet the teachers, see the playground. Tours can be arranged any weekday morning, usually between 9:30 and 11:00 AM, and typically last about half an hour. Tell us a few times that work using the [tour request form](/contact) and we'll match one.

### 2. Apply

Submit the [online application](/apply). We'll email instructions for the **$50 application fee** after you submit; you can pay by PayPal or mail a check. That fee is what puts your family on the waitlist. It's **one $50 fee** whether you're applying for one child or for siblings together, and however many openings you apply to.

*Fee waivers are available. Ask us if cost is a barrier.*

### 3. Sit on the waitlist

Once we have the application and fee, you're in line. Most September and summer offers go out February – June. We only reach out to you if we have a space to offer, but please feel free to check the status of your application at any time.

### Can I visit before applying?

Yes — and we hope you do. We encourage every family to tour before applying.

### What's the $50 application fee for?

It puts your child on the waitlist and covers administrative costs. We email payment instructions after you submit the application — you can pay by PayPal or mail a check. One **$50 fee** covers siblings who apply together, however many openings you apply to. Fee waivers are available — just ask.

### What's the 10-month option?

Attend September through June, take July AND August off (must be both months), and come back to your reserved spot in the fall. Let us know by March 15 if you would like to take advantage of this option.
