ADMISSIONS
The Learning Tree accepts applications for students entering grades Nursery [2.9 years old] to 7. We seek to enroll students who demonstrate that they can contribute to and succeed in our learning environment. The Learning Tree does not discriminate with regard to race, ethnicity, national origin or religious affiliation.
The Admissions Process
When should parents begin the application process?
Contact the school and secure an application for admissions beginning in February. We have a rolling admissions process that closes when each class is full. That said, families completing the admissions process by May 1st will be given the fullest consideration for available seats. Parents completing the process after this time period will be considered on a first come first serve basis. Parents are encouraged to complete the application process as early as possible as space is always limited. A complete application consists of a completed application form, transcripts, interview and assessment tests.
What are the steps I need to take if I am interested in The Learning Tree for my child?
Step 1 - Families interested in Fall enrollment should call the school, to set up a date to tour the school.
Step 2 - Visit the school and interview. We host an Open House the beginning of February and March of each year. This is an ideal time to visit the school. Interviews must be scheduled by appointment. An interview of both the student and parents will be conducted. At this time we will describe our program in more detail and answer questions parents and students may have. The purpose of the interview and school visit is to learn more about one another.
Step 3 - Take assessment tests. Students interested in enrolling in grades K - 7th grades will be given an assessment test in math and English Language Arts. This test is usually administered on the same day as the interview.
Step 4 - Submit a copy of student's transcripts including the most recent report card, any IEP that the student may have and recommendations from the child's current/former school.
Step 5 - Receive an admissions determination letter/phone call from the school. We will contact you in writing or by telephone to inform you if your child has been accepted/not accepted for admission.
Step 6 - Once accepted to the school, registration forms must be filled out and returned with a registration deposit within fourteen (14) days to assure your child's place in the class. Registration materials and deposits received after June 15th may not guarantee enrollment and may cause the student to be wait-listed.
