What happens now?

I have always been a fan of learning what happens behind the scenes. I think it's neat to know how a production comes together! You might be wondering what is happening in our offices right now. I am happy to share!

Our lower school admission office is preparing for our next two visiting days for our prospective students. We have a JK-1 school visit day on Saturday and a grade 2-5 achievement test/makeup JK-1 school visit later this January. As we are a JK- Grade 12 school our office is receiving materials for our JK- Grade 11 applicants and processing it daily. Our Lower School office will begin to audit all the files later this month. We email parents letting them know if the file is a. complete or b. incomplete and we will list what it is missing. We do this early enough for parents to follow up with their school if need be. 

We recognize how much work the application process is for you and we are so excited to be on this journey with your family! I will begin meeting with my admission committee later this month and we will continue to meet throughout February. My admission committee is made up of administrators and faculty members. On March 1 we will mail out our letters.

You might ask what can you be doing at this time ~ I have some thoughts! Think back to your visits to campus. Are there any questions that have come up since your tour? Make sure to make a note of them and ask the admission director. See if there are activities to get back on campus. Our Upper School is putting on the musical Beauty in the Beast! There are evening performances on March 4, 11 and 12 AND there is a matinee on March 5 at 2:00 p.m. It would be a fun opportunity to see our performing arts department first hand!

Happy Near Year!

Sincerely,
Katherine
