Advice from Parents to Prospective Parents on Admissions

Parent #1
Stayed in touch with the director to keep her informed of our continued interest.

Parent #2
It's a little arbitrary. That makes it difficult.

Parent #3
This is a small school. Most families who apply hear about it by word of mouth. We knew several families who sent their kids there and were happy.

Parent #4
Stay in touch and don't take no for an answer. *Lots* of people drop out, so there are often openings mid-year.

Parent #5
Barbara Alexander favors working families for whom an inexpensive preschool is a necessity. She also prefers families who are committed to sending their children to public school.

Parent #6
just kept contacting the director and reiterating our interest!

Parent #7
Met with the director almost a year and half in advance of start date in order for her to meet our son and us.
