First, you will need to submit an inquiry by completing our inquiry form online. You can complete the form by clicking here, or visit the contact us page. Once we recieve your completed inquiry form, we will contact you to set up a time to visit our school and to answer any of your questions. Tours are by appointment only and require a completed inquiry form.
This application will allow you to share information about your child's educational history, strengths and challenges, interests, and more.
At the application stage, we also ask that you share your child's most recent progress report from their current/previous school, and any additional relevant records (such as evaluations). We also require a letter of recommendation, preferably from your child's most recent educator. If you are unable to receive a letter from your child's most recent educator, we ask that you have an unrelated adult who is close to the child write the letter. The person who completes the recommendation should understand your child's social, emotional, and academic development.
There is a non-refundable $50 application fee due after submitting your application. If you are applying for multiple students in your family, you will only need to pay one application fee.
3. Placement Assessment
When we receive a completed application (including fees and additional documentation), the admissions team will begin to evaluate placement options for your child. At this stage, we may request that you return with your child to visit our classrooms, especially if we have not met your child previously. During this visit, we may conduct a quick assessment of your child's academic skills to assist with placement.
During the assessment stage, our admissions team may reach out to you with questions or to request additional information. Please respond within a reasonable amount of time so that we can move forward with your child's application in a timely manner. If we do not receive a response within 2 business days, we put a hold on your child's application. Any application that is on hold will expire after two weeks.
4. Enrollment
All admissions decisions will be shared via email following the placement assessment. Applications are reviewed in the order they are received. In general, decisions are made within one week from when you submit all required materials. If you are curious about the status of your child's application, you can email the admission team at discoveryrootsoffice@gmail.com.
