Application Process

To be considered for admission, parents must first attend a school tour.   Applications are due on January 15th for enrollment in Fall of the following school year. We enroll children once a year unless an unexpected space becomes available.  Parents are notified of acceptance into the program in February. At that time, parents are invited to schedule a time to observe the classrooms during the school day without their children.

Once a family is enrolled in our program, we host many orientation events for children and parents to become familiar with the school community prior to the start of the new school year. Christopher Robin considers many factors when accepting applicants to our program.  We strive to create balanced and diverse classrooms.  Accordingly, the order in which we receive applications does not directly determine acceptance.  

Christopher Robin does not discriminate based on race, religion, ethnicity or national origin.

School Tours

Parents are required to take a school tour before filling out an application.  Tours are offered approximately once a month throughout the year.  Tours are held in the late afternoon when school is not in session and are for parents only.  

During the tour, parents will explore the environment and learn more about our program and guiding philosophy. Tours have a limited number of spaces.  If you would like to sign up for a tour please use the form below.  Please call in advance if you need to reschedule or cancel your tour. Please note you're not confirmed until you receive a confirmation email from us.
