Admission & Tuition
Enrollment for Personalized Learning
With larger classrooms and smaller class sizes, we effectively address students' developmental needs through small group instruction and low adult-to-student ratios. To ensure personalized attention, we are capping enrollment in some classes, so please inquire soon if you're interested in joining us.
The Application Process
Step 1 - School Tour
During your visit you will learn about the New Morning philosophy and curriculum, observe the classrooms, speak with the teacher(s), and will have an opportunity to ask questions and discuss your child’s needs. This meeting is for parents only. We look forward to seeing you there!
Step 3 - Student Visit
Each prospective student is invited to spend a day at the school prior to enrollment. This provides an opportunity for New Morning staff to observe the child in our learning environment and make an informal assessment of his/her skill level. In addition, the student is able to experience the classroom.
Step 2 - Registration and Information Gathering
Once you have completed your tour and are interested in the application process, we go through an information gathering stage. This helps us get to to know your child before their student visit, and helps us understand your child’s strengths and unique gifts.
Tuition
At New Morning School, we believe in providing a comprehensive, hands-on education through active parent and volunteer involvement. This approach not only reduces family expenses but also teaches students about community and cooperation. To sustain this socially engaged environment, we rely on the talents and time of our school’s parents and support systems, offering various ways to contribute despite busy schedules. Parents can assist with cleaning, classroom aid, auction core work, and more, as long as they contribute in a way that fits their availability each year.
