Admissions

The Admissions Process & Events

Thank you for your interest in Village School!  We look forward to partnering with you during the application process. We know this is an important and exciting time as you reflect on your child’s educational journey, and we also understand the anxiety that can often accompany it. We are committed to making the process as comfortable, transparent, and stress-free as possible. Please reach out to our team at any time. We are here to help!
 
Typically, Transitional Kindergarteners will turn five between July 1 and December 31 of the year they will enroll, and Kindergartners will turn five between July 1 of the previous year and June 30 of the year they will enroll. However, we recognize that every child is unique, and these birthdate ranges are not the only determination of correct placement.
