Parent Interview
Once you have submitted your application, you will be invited to schedule a parent interview. This interview, which is for parents only, offers opportunities for you to ask additional questions about Green Acres and to share with us your goals and hopes for your child's educational journey.
Student Visits
Once you have submitted your application, you will also be invited to schedule your child's visiting day. Student visits look a little different based on age; detailed information is broken out by grade below.
➜ Pre-K & Kindergarten
Early childhood visits take place on a weekend date in a group setting and last two hours. Prospective students are given the opportunity to explore and work in the classroom alongside our teachers and other visiting children. The schedule includes an indoor choice time, snack, and a group time (e.g., songs, stories, and PE). Visiting adults are required to remain at school and be available if your child should need you. The visit also includes an opportunity for adults to discuss the program with current parents and members of the administrative staff. Children should wear casual, comfortable clothing.
➜ Grades 1–8
Students applying to grades 1–8 visit for a full day with their current peer group, spending time with fellow students and making transitions throughout the day. During the course of the day, teachers will administer curriculum-based assessments (i.e., not standardized tests) in language arts and math.
